IBnterod according to Act of the Parliament of Canada in the year one thousand eight hundred
and sunaty-eigbt, by J. Ross ROBERTSON, at the Department of Agriculture, Ottawa.
PREFACE.
The Third Volume of "The Landmarks of Toronto" requires no introduction to the
reader. A preface of some kind is considered the conventional form in which a publica
tion may be ushered into life, and, although the Third Volume of The Landmarks of
Toronto " needs no introduction to the reader, this occasion naturally gives to the pub
lisher an opportunity of calling attention to the fact that the book is valuable, and unique
in some regards.
The first and second volumes of the series have already found favor. Not, perhaps, to
the full measure of the publisher s desire, but sufficient to prove that there are half a
thousand readers yet to the fore who treasure the early history of Toronto.
Perhaps no city in the world, Old London excepted, has had eighteen hundred pages of
reading matter devoted to its history. Certainly, no books of the kind have ever con
tained within covers the one thousand engravings of familiar spots in and about the town
for which John Graves Simcoe, staff in hand, went " a city hunting" over a century ago.
This third volume contains the history of many landmarks, each chapter being complete
in itself. The endeavor has been to make every line interesting, and at the same time to
compile an accurate record for the guidance of those who by birth or residence claim
Toronto as home.
The engravings were all made specially for the publication, and are faithful copies of
originals or reproductions in half-tone.
In general the landmarks call for no specific mention. Some, however, are worthy of
particular note. The history of the Cathedral Church of St. James, the first Anglican
church of the Town of York, in which for a century the Holy Writings have been read,
must be attractive to every Torontonian. No such collection of facts about the old church
has ever been given before. In this volume is included an accurate list of ^every baptism
and marriage in the church from the earliest date of record to 1896, the MSS. of which in
their original form contain some thousands of written pages.
This volume, as with those preceding it, is submitted to the reader in hope that some of
the spare time of life may be pleasurably filled by the perusal of a story which will be
interesting even in competition with an entertaining novel or a modern newspaper.
The reading of history, some one has said, commends itself to many as the pleasant occu
pation of stray half-hours, and, as the mental labor involved in mastering these chapters is
at the command of all, it follows that the reader, at a very small cost, may herein find
entertainment that will not only be pleasurable but knowledge-giving.
This is the third volume of the series. The fourth, with a complete history of each
church from its foundation, will be issued in the spring of 1899.
Five hundred copies of this volume have been printed. The price is $2.00. The book
will not be reprinted.

CHANGES AND IMPROVEMENTS.
padina Avenue as It Was Yonge and Gren-
vllle Streets Vanished Scenes Some Old-
time Residents.
Whep one paes now, along Spadinai
, venue from Queen street to Bloor street
there is little or nothing left in the
buildings on either side of the road to
call to mind w,hat the now splendidly
paved ami at night brilliantly illumin
ated thoroughfare was like only twenty-
five years since, in 1870.
Everyone is familiar with the appear
ance of the north-west corner of College
street and Spadiua avenue as it is to
day. Yet there are many thousands of
Toroutonians who have but the faintest
idea of what it was like in 1870. WLerte
handsome houses now are and where
thriving businesses are conducted stood
three or four rough-cast cottages, in
every stage of dilapidation. The fences
were tumbling down, the stucco was fall
ing off each house by square yards, the
Venetian blinds in many cates hung by
one hinge, and in others were wholly
missing. One house had quite lost its
chimneys, and on another they were
partly blown down. The sidewalks were
of three fe^t planks, and they, too, in
many places were sadly in need of repair.
Nor was this an isolated case by any
means, though perhaps it was the worst.
With very few exceptions the houses in
Spadina avenue, north of Quei ii street,
were of the commonest order and poorest
construction, and in every case lacked all
the conveniences that in 1895 can be
found in those that are rented for $S
and $10 a month.
The picture given ia no fancy one. It
is not drawn from imagination, aa will
be seen by the accompanying cut of the
locality as it was just a quarter of a
century since. No better evidence caji be
given of the wonderful progress made by
the city than comparing Spadina avem.
as it is now with what it was at the
period referred to.
Where tie branch of the Bank of Com
merce is now was in 1870 a vacant lot ;
there were four small rough-cast cot
tages north of the cori.er, the third of
which is still standing in a very much
improved condition. The building of tl e
Y. M. C. A. on Spadina avenue. No. 484,
occupied the site of tin; first of the four
cottages, private dwelling houses fill up
the space occupied by the second, and the
third is now No. 498. The fourth was
just on the westerly bend of Spadina
Crescent, and was pulled down with the
others about fifteen years since. Robert
Mansfield, the florist, resided there, aa
his widow does yet.
The residence of Sir Adam Wilson, ou
the north-east corner of Russell street
and Spadiua avenue, was almost tie
only other house in the vicinity.
The laud on which the cottages shown
in the illustration stood was originally
a portion of the Baldwin estate. It was
purchased and the^e cottages erected by
the late John Smith, a prosperous man
of business in the city. Many jears since,
in the "forties," John Smith was in
partnership in the provision trad*
with his namesake, the lately
deceased Alexander Mortimer Smith,

It is ndt so surprising that there should
fee such a marked contrast between

of the city then and now are almost as
great. Take, for instance, the west side
of Yonge street in 1865, between College

It is now, and Grcnville street. On
the last day of December, 1894,
there were fourteen bouses and shops
on that portion of the thoroughfare
numbered from 450 to 470 there being
in addition 450 1-2, 452 1-2, and 454 1-2.
There was in 1865 no street railway,
no electric lighting, no asphalted roads
or sidewalks, the former was of macadam,
the latter of planks, not in the best of
repair at most times, but it must be said
in justice to the former, that it was al
ways, excepting just when the Irost was
breaking up, in excellent condition, as far
north as Bloor street, fairly level and
during the summer well watered. Of
course, it was very dusty, but not nearly
o bad as other portions of the city s thor
oughfares.
Where now exists a long row of excel
lent stores and houses was one .single,
substantial brick house, No. 432, owned
and occupied by J. B. Caulkins, of the
firm of Smith & Caulkins, brush and broom
manufacturers, the manufactory itself be
ing No. 434. As will be seen. from the il
lustration, the whole place had a coun
try aspect, though the iirm did a very
extensive business. Later the firm be
came Caulkins & Sanderson, but as late
as 1870 no additions had been made to
the buildings between the two streets, Col
lege and Grenville on Yonge s western side.
The land upon which Mr. Caulkins house
was erected formerly belonged to James
Macaulay. At his death it was sold to
Dr. Clark, of Yonge street, father of Capt.
C. J. Clark, 100th Regiment, and of Al lis
ter M. Clark, who built the house which
la sold sJmoflt as soon as he had put it
up, to J. B. Caulkuw.
To proceed further north, still on the
western side of Yonge street, between
Grenville and Grosvenor streets, was the
small dairy farm of William Forbes. He
had several cows, and pastured them in a
field, certainly of no very extensive di
mension*?, close to his house. There were
no other occupiers between Grenville and
the next street, Grosveuor, excepting
Forbes. When the latter street was pass
ed came the Victoria Hotel, kept by one
Robert Haoicock ; then came Dr. Page s
eurgery and residence, and the premises
occupied by an all but forgotten worthy,
T. F. Roome, the organ builder. Passing
Breadalbane street, at No. 504, lived Mar
tin Malone, the well-known mail officer,
and, with the exception of his house, all
waa waste or garden ground until St.
Alban s street was reached. Three well-
known men were among the occupants of
that eide of the street ; they were B.
Woodaworth, who had an extensive lumber
yard on the north-west corner of St. Alban
and Yonge streets; Charles Durand, who
lived at 538, and who practiced and
still practices (1895) as a barrister; and
John Wickson, one of the same family fa
Processor Wicksou, some time head mas
ter of Toronto Grammar school, and who
now, though long past the "three score
years and ten " of the Psalmist, is hale,
hearty and actively engaged in philan
thropic work in London, Eng. Passing
St. Joseph, between that and St. Cle
ments street, were some half dozen resi
dences of a very second-rate descript-
tiou. The latter street is now known
as Irwin avenue, and it was all vacant
land from there, to Albaoiy, now called
St. Mary s street. Czar street did r.ot
exist then. The houses between Albany
and Bloor streets were for the most part
occupied by small trades people, thoug h.
the residences of Amos Bostwick, No.
642, and that of the wholesale clothiers,
the Lumleys, Edward, Benjamin and
Morris, next door, were of a mora
pretentious character. On the south
west corner of Bloor and Youge
streets was Robert Bratinpton, the drug
gist and grocer. His store waa a favour
ite resort of many of the old-time resi
dents in Yorkville, as Bramiptou could
not only tell a very good story, but
also enjoyed listening to one.
Returning to College avenue, on the
eastern side of Yonge street, on the south
east corner of Yonge and Gloucester
streets, No. 547, was Mr. George Michie w
substantial residence, still standing.
South of it was James Stitts, and 001
the corner of Wellesley street lived Mr.
Robert Cassels, cashier of the Bank of
Upper Canada. Mr. B. M. Worthington
occupied rooms at 483 Youge street. Ho
was principal of what was then known
(1863-64) as the Commercial College.
Reaching Carlton street, opposite the
point from which we started, several
small houses and shops were passed, none
of any importance, nor do any of those
who resided there call for special notice
in this retrospective sketch of Yongo
street from College avenue to Yorkville
tkirty years ago.

TRINITYJJNJVERSITY.
Its Rise and Progress The First Provost

of its statesmen than Toronto Univer-
fity and that also of Trinity.
To give even the most condensed his
tory of Trinity University -without re
ferring to King s College, now known as
Toronto University, or more popularly
as the Varsity, would be impossible. So
it -will be necessary to go back for many
years to a period of which there are
now few, if any, survivors, and show
how from the events which led to the
abolition ol King s Colleg -, Trinity Uni
versity came to be established.
So far back as 1797, almost a century
feince, the Legislative Council and Housy
of Assembly of Upper Canada petitioue-d
King George III. that "His Majesty would
be graciously pleased to direct his Gov
ernment in this province (Upper Canada)
if appropriate a certain portion of the
waste lands o c the Crown as a fund for
the establishment and support of a re
spectable Grammar school in each district
thereof, and also of a College or Univer
sity for the instruction of youth in the
different branches of liberal knowledge."
To this petition the Duke of Portland,
who was then acting as Secretary of
State for the Colonies, on November 4th,
1797, thus replied in a despatch ad-
dreamed to President Russell :
" His Majesty * * * has condescended
to express his most gracious intention
to comply with the wishes of the Legis
lature of his Province of Upper Canada
in euch manner as shall be judged to be
most effectual."
Nothing further was done until a year
later, when President Russell, on Novem
ber 6th, 1798, addressed a circular to
the Executive Council and judges of
Upper Canada asking them for their opin
ion as to the best means to be adopted
so that some of the waste Crown lauds
might " be appropriated and rendered
productive towards the formation of a
fund for the establishment of free gram
mar schools in those districts iu which
they are called for."
The report made by the Council and
judges was a very lengthy one, and was
signed by Chief Justice Elmsley, for him
self and his colleagues. Its first recom
mendation was as follows :
That an appropriation of 500,000
acres, or ten townships, after deducting
the Crown and clergy sevenths, will be a
sufficient fund for the establishment and
maintenance of the Royal foundation of
four Grammar Schools and an University
in the Province of Upper Canada."
The report stated that in the judgment
of its compilers 180 provincial currency,
or $720, would be a sufficient annual
allowance, and that " the provision for
the establishment and maintenance of
the University should be at least equal
to that of four schools taken together."
Very shortly after this date, December,
1798, the District Grammar schools came
into existence, but not until March 15th,
1828, was the Royal charter granted
which, among other things, set forth :
" That there shall be established at or
near our town of York, in our said Pro
vince of Upper Canada, from this time
one college, with the style and privileges
of an University, as hereinafter directed,
for the education and instruction of
youth and students in arts and faculties,
to continue for ever to be called King s
College."
The charter further set forth that the
president of the college " shall be," note,
! not may be, " a clergyman in holy orders
of the Church of England." Further, it
appointed the tiieu Archdeacon of Yo:k,
Dr. 3ohu Strachan, the first president,
and it enacted that the archdeacon of
York should always be ex-officio presi
dent of the college.
The governing body was to be called
the "College Council." It was to consist
of the chancellor, the president and seven
of the professors. These were all com-
i polled to be member.-! of the Anglican
church, and the charter especially set
forth, should "previously to their admis
sion into the said College Council, eeven-
ally siga and subesribe the Thirty-nine
Articles of Religion, as declared and eet
forth iu the Book of Common Prayer."
More than the foregoing, though, waa
enacted, for if there were not professors
enough to make up the requisite seven
who were members of the Church of Eng
land, the Chancellor had the power to
appoint outside re who had graduated at
the University to the vacancies in the
Council.
No test was required from matriculants
who only pursued an arts course. They
could take their degrees entirely unfet
tered; but divinity students were sub
ject to th > same regulations as then ob
tained in the University of Oxford, which
were religi nn t sls of the most stringent
order in regard to the Church of England.
To all intents and purposes the first
Upper Canadian University, King s Col
lege, was to be an Anglican institution,
maintained by public money.
Very great dissatisfaction was soon
manifested throughout the province when
the provisions of the charter became
known, and despite the fact that the
then Lieutenant-Governor, Sir Peregrine
Maitland, had formed the College Council
as soon as he received the charter, no
commencement of work had been at
tempted.
In 1836 the opponents of the proposed
college had be>n able to bring such pres
sure to bear upon both the Colonial and
LANDMARKS OF TORONTO.
Home Governments that an act was paaaed
in the Imperial Parliament making cer
tain alterations and amendments in the
charter of the university. These were cer
tainly not in the interest of the Anglican
body, tut, on the other hand, they were
not in the interest of any other religious
denomination; while they absolutely de
barred either Unitarians or Jews from be
ing professors in or members of the gov|-
eruing body of the college Dr. Strachau
was to retain office as president during
his lie, and his successor was to be apt-
pointed by the Crown.
In due time King s College was opened,
the corner stone being laid with great
ceremony by Sir Charles Bagot, the Gov
ernor-General of Canada, on St. George s
Day, 1842. The work o! the college began
June 8th, 1843, and SODU began to exer
cise through its scholars an iui lueuce for
good among the people o: the province.
Among the first of its undergraduates
were : Walter Steunett, afterwards the
fourth principal of Upper Canada Col
lege; William Wedd, for forty years one
of the classical masters at the same in
stitution; and Alexander Dixoii, now Angli
can rector of St. George s church, Guelph,
and alio an honorary olfkial of Trinity
College.
What has been written will clearly
ehow the state of affairs regarding
King s College up to 1842. Just prior to
the laying of the corner stone of the
university, the Reverends A. N. Bethune,
H. J. Grasett and Henry Scadding, chap
lains to Dr. Strachan, Bishop of To
ronto, met together for the purpose of
devising a scheme by which the stu
dents in Divinity in ths diocese of To
ronto, which meant the whole of Upper
Canada, could be brought under a sys
tematic course of instruction in theo
logy before they werj admitted into
holy orders,. This meeting was the result
of the dissatisfaction felt by Anglicans
at the Royal Charter given to Kiug .i
College being interfered with, and it
was also evidence of the fear they felt,
that further changes still less in the
interest of ths Anglican body might be
brought about.
The three clergymen who have been
named deliberated carefully, as any one
who ever had any acquaintance with
either of them will know they were like
ly to do. It is hard even to fmagiue any
one of the three acting without the
greatest deliberation at all times, and
the result of their deliberations was a
recommendation from them that it would
be in the interest of the Anglican body
to establish a theological college in the
diocese. The Church of England clergy
and laity in Upper Canada found that
they could not hare a State aided sec
tarian university governed by men All
of whom were compelled to be Anglicans,
and though Bishop Strachan was still
president of King s College, the most
far-seeing and sagacious men amongst
the Anglicans felt that the day was not
far distant when the last vestige of de-
nosninationalism would be swept out of
King s College. Amongst those who
thought thus was Bishop Strachan, and
while he was prepared to fight to the
bitter end for all that he thought worth
fighting for as a Churchman in the con
trol of King s College, ha was prepared
for the worst, and was determined that
when the remnant of Anglican influence
vanished from King s College, the former
body must have a university of its own,
controlled fay aud in the interest of that
church.
Once having made up his mind on any
subject Dr. Strachan was not slow to
act. The three clergymen named had held
their meeting in October, 1841, and on
November 27th, in the same year, the
following notice appeared in the Church,
a newspaper published in the interest of
the Anglican body.
The Lord Bishop of Toronto has been
pleased to appoint the Rev. A. N. Bethune
rector of Cobcurg and one of his Lordship s
chaplains, to be professor of theology in
this diocese. Candidates for Holy Or
ders will in future be expected to place
themselves under the Instructions of the
professor for the purpose of passing
through a prescribe^ course of theological
study, but they must previously pass an
examination before one of the Bishop s
chaplains to ascertain their competency
to enter with advantage on the appointed
line of reading. At the end of the course
such students as are approved by the
professor, and can produce the necessary
testimonials will be permitted to present
themselves as candidates for ordination."
This was p radically the birth of the
theological department of Trinity Univer
sity, though that institution itself was
not actually called into existence until
some nine years later. No blame is
sought to be attached to Dr. Strachan for
doia^ what he considered his best for the
Anglican church. He had hoped to se
cure and thought he had secured, King s
College in that body s interest, and waa
disappointed. He foresaw that ere long
that college would be no longer in any
.sense a religious* training school, and like
the statesman he was, he prepared to put
himself in a position to meet the evil day
when it arrived.
Dr. Bethune commenced his lectures at
Cobourg on January 10th, 1842, and there
were seven students in the first term,
which number was increased to seventeen
before the end of the year. The course

was a classical and theological cue and
lasted three years. There was of cours-
no endowment to work with, the income
being made up from the fees of the pupils
and by a grant of 100 sterling from
the Society for the Propagation of the
Gospel iu England. During the existence
of this school until it was merged with
Trinity University in 1851, forty-five stu
dents availed themselves of the opportun
ities for study it afforded them. Amongst
them, were the following well-known men :
Revs. C. L. Ingles, whose sou is now rec
tor o. St. Mark s, Parkdale ; Canon Logan ;
J. G. D. McKenzie, formerly of Yorkville ;
James Mockrid^e ; J. B. Worrell, now oi ;
Oak vi ile ; Charles Ruttan, the first rec
tor of St. George s, Toronto, now of
Norway, and the well-known antiquar
ian, G. A. Bull, of St. Catharines.
King s College pursued its career, but
it was greatly opposed by many of the
politicians in the province, and in the
year 1849 the end came. By an act passed
by the Provincial Legislature on May
30th, 1849, remodelling the university,
under the style, no longer of King s Col
lege, but of Toronto University, it was
enacted, by clause xii.: " That there shall
be no Faculty of Divinity in the said Uni
versity, nor shall there be any Professor
ship, Lectureship or Teachership of Divin
ity in the same."
The re-modelled University was to be
an. absolutely secular institution, so it
became and so it has remained ever since.
The new act came into operation on
January 1st, 1850, and then Dr. Straehan
ielt the time for decisive measures had
arrived. King s College as a divinity
school, even if a poor one, was a thing
of the past, and he must take steps to
supply the deficiency created. The Bishop
at once issued a letter to Anglicans
throughout the province, in which, after
lamenting the extinction of King s Col
lege "as a Christian Institution," he
asked :
" Deprived of her University, what is
the Church to do ? She hae now no semi
nary in which to give a liberal edu
cation to her youth. What is enjoyed
by all the other large denominations in
the province is denied >to her." The Bis
hop then proceeded to dwell on the im
portance of religious education, and told
his readers that " it was surely the
duty as well as the privilege, of every
churchman in the diocese, to assist as
far as he is able in supplying the want
which the church now feels in the destruc
tion of her University, and which, if not
supplied, will in a short time arrest the
happy progress she is making through
all parts of the country." He then pro
ceeded in the most emphatic language
to sketch out what he believed was re
quired. " The church ought to do no
thing by halves," wrote the Bishop, add
ing, " Her University must comprise an
entire system of education, based on re
ligion." Proceeding, he gave a descrip
tion of what he considered the proposed
new University should be, and announced
his intention of proceeding to England
to obtain help and additional contribu
tions to those already promised in fur
therance of the project. There is a touch
of true pathos in the concluding words of
the Bishop s letter, reading thus :
" I shall have completed my seveaty-
sccond year before I can reach London,
of which more than fifty years have been
spent in Upper Canada, and one of my
chief objects during all that time, was
to bring King s College into active oper
ation ; and now after more than six year*
of increasing prosperity to see it destroy
ed * * is a calamity not easy to bear.
" I shall not restt satisfied till I have
laboured to the utmost to restore the
college under a holier and more perfect
form. The result is with a Higher Power,
and I may still be doomed to disappoint
ment ; but it is God s work, and I feel
confident that it will be restored, al
though I may ncrt be the happy instru
ment or live to behold it.
" Having done all in my power, I shall
acquiesce submissively to the result,
whatever it may be ; and I shall then
and not till then, consider my mission on
this behalf ended."
The Bisnop was to sail for England
early in April, and to bear with him a
petition to the Queen, praying that her
Majesty would " be graciously pleased to
grant your Royal charter for the incor-
portation of an University, to be estab
lished on this clear and unequivocal prin
ciple," that of adherence to the Church
of England, " to be supported by means
which the members of the church will
contribiite from their own resources."
This petition was signed by 11,731 per
sons, a vast proportion of whom were
heads of families.
On Wednesday, April 10th. 1850, Bishop
Straehan left Toronto by the steamboat
America en route to England. He reached
London early in May.and at once put him
self in communication with Earl Grey, the
Secretary of State for the Colonies, on
the subject of his mission. He was cour
teously received by that statesman, and
received a promise that his arguments in
favour of a Royal charter being gran-ted
should receive every consideration. Sir
Robert Peel, the then Prime Minister, also
afforded the Bishop more than one inter
view, aa also did the Duke of Wellington
and other well-known public men. Tbe
Bishop, though, did not succeed at the
time in obtaining a Royal charter,

In the summer of 1850 Drs. E. M. Hod-
der anl James Bovell organized a school
<>f medicine and with them were associat
ed Drs. Badgley, Bethune, Hallowell and
Melville. This school was announced as
the "Upper Canada School of Medicine/
As soon a Bishop Strachan returned
from Engla nd in November, 1850, a
deputation from this body waited iipou
him and tendered their services as the
Medical Faculty of the proposed univer
sity should it be proposed to have a
medical school. They also promised to
give their services gratuitously until
there were sufficient funds in the hands
of the governing body to warrant them
in paying suitable remuneration for the
servici-s rendered. This offer was accept
ed an 1 oil November 7th, 1850, in the
lecture h-ill of the M-schanics Institute on
Court street the inaugural lectures were
d livered in public, by Dr. Hodder on
Obstetrics, Dr. Bethune on Anatomy, Dr.
Melville; on Surgery, Dr. Bovell on Med -
cine, and Dr. Hallowell on Mater .a
Mediea. Th> Bishop presided and thera
was a good attendance of the public,
This event may be regarded as the first
in the educational history of the uni
versity.
On January 23rd, 1851, at a meeting
of the Provisional Committee held at the
Church Society s House, 5 King street
west, now No. 10, Mr. Kivas Tully and
Messrs. Cumberland and Ridout, archi
tects, were requested to prepare plans
and design^ for the propose 1 University
buildings, the cost of which was not to
e:;c,-el 8000 currency, or $32,000.
The designs submitted by Kivas Tullr !
were adopted, and the contract for the i
building was given to the firm of build- !
ers, Metcalie, Wilson & Forbes. The !
amount of the contract was 7,845 cur
rency ($31,380).
Ou St. Patrick ** Day. 1851. the first I
re/I was turned by Bishop Strachan in
the presence of a larg: number of sym
pathizers and spectators. Amongst others
who were present en the occasion was
the Rev. J. T. Lewis, the present Arch
bishop of Ontario. Rev. Stephen Lett,
LL.D., at the time rector of St. George s
in Toronto, was mother who was there,
h-nd he, true to his nationality, wore in
his buttonho e a shamrock, in honour
of the day.
Six weeks later was laid with imposing
ceremony the corner stone of the building
o" course by Bishop Strachan and there
were several thousands o? people present,
| among them great numbers of ladies. The
| inscription on the brass plate which warn
let into the stone was in Latin. The fol
lowing is a translation :
In the name of the Father, and of the
Sou, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen.
On the 30th of April, 1851, in the 14th
year o! the reijn of Victoria, by the Grace
of God, Queen, Defender of the Faith, and
while the Right Honourable the Earl of
Elgin and Kincardine was Goveruoi -Gen
eral o! British. North America, the Foun
dation Stone of Trinity College, Toronto,
an Institution established for the further
ance of the Christian Religion and all the
Liberal Sciences, was laid by the Honour
able and Rijht Reverend John Strachan,
D.D.. LL.D., Bishop of Toronto.
The College, now commenced, is built
by the muniiicence of those who, at his
earnest instigation, both iu Britain and in
i thi.-i Diocese, gave with willing minds, as
to the Lord, gifts of money and lands, for
the accomplishment of this object.
To thi-s devoted and persevering pre
late, who, throughout an extended life,
labours that the youth of Canada may at
all times be trained in Christian prin
ciples, let posterity render grateful
thanks.
With the Bishop, who is deservedly the

The foregoing inscription was composed
by the Rev. Henry S^adding, at tnat
time incumbent o? Holy Trinity church,
Toronto, ani first classical master at
Dpj-r Canada College. By him it was
rendered into Latin, as it is inscribed ujon
the braes plate.
The corner stone was then duly laid,
and afterwards Sir A. N. McNab address
ed the assembled clergy and spectators in
complimentary language, dwelling on the
success which had so far attended the
labours of the Bishop in promoting the
University.
An address in Latin from the pupils
of St. Paul s Church Grammar School was
presented to the Bishop by John Bethuue,
a son of the Archdeacon, and replied to
by the aged prelate in the same tongue.
This school carried in the procession a
handsome white silk banner, not of very
large dimensions, bearing on it the name
of th^ school. The school itself was under
the principalship of Rev. John George Dal-
hoste McKenzie, assisted by his brother
Valentine, and for some time also by a
Mr. Evans. Miss Crombie, a sister-in-
law of Mr. McKenzie, had charge of a
few of the younger boys. The school was
conducted in the basement of the private
housj occupied by its principal. It was the
uecond house east of St. Paul s church, and
though it has been very greatly enlarged,
is still standing. It was intended that
St. Paul s Grammar School should be a
training school for Trinity University, but
about 1854 the idea was abandoned, and
Mr. McKenzie gave up teaching.
The financial results of Dr. Straehairs
visit to ^ngland were very encouraging.
They were related by the Bishop himself
oi the opening of the College buildings on
January 15th, 1852, in the following
words :
" On the 30th April (1851), I reached
London, and lost no time in addressing
letters to the archbishops, bishops, clergy
and laity members of the church, telliu;i
them that under the pressure of what I
*elt to be a great necessity, I had ceasea,
for a short time, my pastoral labours in
the diocese of Toronto, to appeal, I hoped
not in vain, to their sympathy, in behalf of
their brethren in Canada. The full ex
planation of the causes of my visit, my
object and wants, was most favourably
received, and munificent donations grant
ed,"
The Bishop then gave a list of those
who had contributed. Among them were :
Society for Propagation of Gospel,
2,000 sterling. Also seven and a hoi!
acres of land within the limits of To
ronto, valued at 2,000 sterling.
Society for Promoting Christian Know
ledge, 3,000 sterling.
Private subscriptions, including one of
500 from C. H. Turner, of Rook e Nest
Park, Surrey, 4,000.
It has often been asserted that tue
land upon which Trinity University is
built was presented to the Bishop as a
free gift. Such was not the case. It had
been purchased from Mias Cameron, of
Gore Vale.
The professorial staff of the University
on its opening was as follows :
Provoat Rev. George Whittaker, M.A.,
who was by virtue of his office piofessor
of divinity.
Classics Rev. E. St. John Parry, M.A,
Mathematics Rev. Geo. C. Irving, B,A,
Faculty of Medicine Drs. E. M. Hod-
der, James Bovell, Henry Melville, Nor
man Bethune, F. Badgley, W. Hallowell.
Faculty of Law J. H. Hagarty, Q.C.,
John Hillyard Cameron, Q.C., and Philip
M. Vankoughuet, Q.C.
Provost Whittaker was educated at
Queen s College, Cambridge, and assum
ed the duties of Provost of Trinity while
still a young man. For exactly thirty
years he remained at his post, only re
signing on account of failing health in
1881. He returned to England and de
voted the short remainder of his days
to parochial work, dying about ten years
since. He was succeeded by the Rev. C.
W. E. Body, late Fellow of St. John s Col
lege, Cambridge. Provost Body was not
only an able mathematician, he having
been sixth Wrangler, but also was an ac
complished classic and theologian, having
taken a First-Class in the Theological
Tripos. Provost Body resigned in 1894,
having accepted the post ol lecturer on
Old Testament History in the General
Theological Seminary, New York. He was
followed by the Rev. E. A. Welch, of
King s College, Cambridge, P.. A. 1882,
M.A. 1886. He came out in the First-Olass
Classical Tripos 1882, and Second-Class
Theological Tripos 18S6. Was, at the date
of his appointment Vicar of Church of Ven
erable Bede, Gateshead.
Professor Parry was a graduate of
Balliol College, Oxford, and remained at
Trinity until 1856, when he returned to
England and became Head Master of
Leamington College, in Warwickshire,
which post he held for many years. He
etill survives, though he has abandoned
teaching.
Professor Irving was educated at St.
John s College, Cambridge. He came to
Canada shortly alter taking his degree
to assume th> mathematical chair at Trin
ity, and discharged his duties until 1856,
when he resigned. In i860 he returned

to Trinity as Vice-Provost, holding that
office until 1863, when he weiit to Leu-
aoxville. He was drowned in tne Riviere
du Loup two years later.
Of the medical staff, Dr. Hodder was
F.R.C.S., England. He was one of the
most popular and able surgeons of his
time, and had resided in Toronto since
1843. He continued his connection with
Trinity until his death, which occurred
February 20th, 1878, in his sixty-eighth
year.
Dr. James Bovell came to Toronto in
1847. He was M.B.C.P. Eng., and was
looked upon as an authority 011 physiology
and patho ogy. He left Canada for the
West ladies, where he became an Angli
can clergyman in 1870. His death took
place at NevLs, W. I., January 16th, 1880.
Dr. Melville s connection with Trinity
was of very brief duration, he leaving
Toronto to; 1 England in 1853. He waa ;i
graduate of Edinburgh. University, fully
conversant with his profession, and a re-
luiarkably skillul operator. He died in
England more than thirty years ago.
Dr. Norman Bethuue, a nephew of
Archdeacon Bethune. was educated at
Edinburgh and London, taking his de
gree as M.R.C.S. at the latter place in
1848. He lectured at Trinity on anatomy
and physiology. He died iii Toronto on
Octoier 12th, 1892, aged 70.
Drs. Badgley and Hallowell lectured
on Medical Jurisprudence and Materia
Medica respectively, ani continued to do
to for some years. Dr. Badgley s conneq-
tioa with Trinity ceased about 1855, and
that o! Dr. Hallowell several years later.
The latter died in Toronto iu 1873.
Of those who fdrmed the Faculty of Law
it is hardly necessary to say anything.
Mr. J. H. Hagarty still survives, while
both the Hon. J. H. Cameron and P. M.
Vankoughnet have been dead for many
yeaJB.
The names of the College Council have
already been given in the inscription on
the corner stone. To those names were
tdded on the opening of the college those
of Provost Whittaker, Professors Parry
and Irving. Thomas Champion resigned
the secretaryship on January 1st, 1852,
and Charlee McGrath was appointed to
the vacancy.
Such was the staff of Trinity when its
career opened La 1851. Of all those who
were associated with it on its teaching
or governing staff then, only the present
Chancellor, Hon. G. W. Allan, Professor
Parry and Judge Hagarty an-e still ex
tant. Tempera Mutantur.
Having said so much about the cir
cumstances attending the opening of
Trinity University, it is time to give
some description of the building itself.
Tbe portion of it wfeich was completed
in 1852 iucludsd tha whole of the froat
facing the lake, which was 250 feet long
from east to west and fifty feet in
depth on the eastern and western sides.
There wera the usual lecture rooms for
the classical, mathematical and other
professors and rooms for forty-five un
dergraduates. What is now the library
was used as the College Chapel and the
Provost resided within the precincts. The
style of the architecture is of the
third period, Pointed English, which ob
tained in the motherland just prior to
and during the reign of Henry VHI.
The materials used in constructing the
college were white bricks ma.de in York-
ville and stone from Cleveland, Ohio,
which, from its colour, harmonized with
the bricks. The total number of apart
ments in the building when it was open
ed wa? about one hundred and eighty,
the largest of which was in the ground
floor and measured fifty by thirty feet.
Of additions made to the college since
its erection therJ has been Convocation
Hall, erected in 1S77, and which con
tains a very fine portrait of Dr-
Strachan in his Episcopal habit, one of
Provost Whittaker in academicals, and
a third of Dr. E. M. Hodder.
In 1884 the new chapel on the eastern
side was added. It has been spoken of by
competent authorities as a "gem of
ecclesiastical architecture," and though
there is a somewhat uiicomfortabla air
of "newness" about its interior, it is a
lovely place, and such stained glass
windows as it possesses are works of the
highest order. The west wiog was add
ed in 1891 and the eastern in 1894. {At
present (1895) the building will accom-i
rnodate about ninety students in arts and
divinity, the medical school being extra
mural and the students non-residential,.
The following list of those who are or
have been professors in the college, not
including those of the Medical school, will
be scanned with interest by many, not
only in Toronto, but in different parts
of Canada :

Dr. Gwynne was born in 1806 in Ire
land, being the sou of Rev. William
Gwynne, D.D., an Irish clergyman. He
was educated at Trinity Collage, Dublin,
incorporated militia, and was exceedingly
popular with bo^h offi e-s and men. He
was also a member of the Upper Canada
Medical Board, and took an active part
in the medical department of Toronto
University until the year 1854. Dr.
Gwynne was an earnest and energetic
man in everything relating to his pro
fession. He could not tolerate half-heart-
edness, and he strove to imbue his pupils
at the University with a like energy.
For the last twenty years of hia life
Dr. ^ Gwynne was not engaged in active
pro essionnl work, but spent much of his
time on his land and in entomological
research. He died in September, 1875,
in his Feventieth year. His widow eur-
vived him for nearly eight years. She

Ireland, but remained here, and on July

period after his arrival in this country
he was in Kingston, but very soon came
to York. ;

erected early in tlie century, and was
purchased by Colonel Joseph Wells, of
the 43rd Monmouthshire Regiment, in
1820. On coming into possession of the
property, Colonel Weils determined to en
large the house, and, having retired from
the army, to make it his home fo? the
rest of his life. The result of this re-
eolve was, that the residence, as it is
now, was constructed, it being, when fin
ished, as it is still, one of the most com
fortable of dwellings.
Joseph Wells was born in England, June
19th, 1773, and entered H.M. 43rd Regi
ment of foot at an early age. He was
married at the historic church of St.
Botolph, Aldersgate, London, England, by
the Rev. W. Trollops, on June 10th,
1813, to Harriet King, and immediately
after Waterloo was fought came out to
Canada on duty. At that time Colonel and
Mrs. Wells had one sou, George Dupont
Wells, who afterwards took an active in
terest in agricultural matters in this pro-
vin e, and was for several years secretary
to the York Township Agricultural So
ciety. He was one of the first pupils at
Dpter Canada College on its opening. He
died in the Albany Chambers, Toronto,
December 4th. 1854, in his forty-first year.
Robert was the second son. He died at
Davenport, July 29th, 1868, having just
completed his fifty-first year. His widow
married again, and continued to reside
at Davenport until 1894. Charles was
the third eon. He was drowned in the
river at Ottawa, near where he was
at school, in 182S. He was only nine years
old. Frederick Wells, the mo?t distinguish
ed member o? the family, of whom more
will be said presently, was born June
19th, 1822, and was entered at Upper
Canada College in 1830, when he was
only eight years old. He had as his co-
temporaries boys from the Jarvis, Bcul-
ton. Ridcut, Heward, Robinson and many
other well known Toronto families. Arthur
Wei la was the fifth eon. He was born in
1824, is married and has a large family.
He resides at Pueblo, Colorado Like his
brothers, Arthur was an Up; er Canada
Collage boy. where he entered in 1833, a
son of Sir John Colborne entering at the
name time. Colonel and Mrs. Wells had
also several daughters, all of whom have
passed away.
Colonel Wells served with the 43r;l
Regiment in the Peninsular campaign,
was present at Badajoz and r3ceived the
gold cross given for the famous siege.
When he retired from the army he was
for some time Bursar to Upper Canadi
College, but the most of his time was
taken up with his property aid its re-
ponsibilities at Davenport. He was a
remarkably handsome man, the very
w?nce of courtesy and of unsullied
honour. His diath took place at Daven-
port on Felruary 4th, 1853. He was
buried in the family vault in St.
James cemetery. Mrs. Wells died March
, 18th, 1851.
Fred rick Wells, tha fourth son, who
has previously been mentioned, was des
tined for the sriny from his birth, and
he obtained his first commission as
! Ensign in the 1st, or Royal, Regiment,
, October 15th, 1841, when he was a lit-
I tie more than nineteen years of age. His
subsequent commissions bear dite as
follows : Lieutenant, August 7th, 1844 j;
Captain, November 6th, 1854 ; Brevet
Ma jor, November 2nd, 1855 ; Major.
June 26th, 1866 ; Brevet Lieutenant
Colonel, February 8th, 1866 ; Lieutenant-
Colonel. November 18th, 1868. Wells
served with his r?giment at various sta
tions both at home and abroad until
1854, when he accompanied it to the
east on the breaking out of the Crimean
or Russian war. He served throughout
the whola campaign, was present at the
battles of Alma, Inkernian^ and through
the fearful siege of Sebastopol, being
present at the final attack upon the city
and the capture of the Redan. For his
services he received the brevet rank of
Major, the Crimean medal, the Turkish
medal and fifth class of the Medjidie and
was mrdi a companion of the French
Legion of Honour. Tha patent conferring
Ihis d iftirction upon him was in these
terms :
" His Majesty the Emperor, by a de
cree ol June 16th, 1856, has named as a
Knight o? the Imperial Order of the
Legion of Honour, Major Frederick WelL ; ,
let Royal Regiment, Infantry. He to have
precedence from the same date."
"Paris, June 21, 1856."
On the conclusion of the Crimean War
Major Wells obtained leave of absence
and visited Toronto, his native city. He
was most warmly welcomed by every one,
and the welcome was not confined to
words only. The City Council presented
him with a valuable sword, now in the
pos ession of Major Wells only daugh
ter, r,.nd an address, which was in these
words :

lant troops of both nations, who united
in maintaining an arduous and successful
struggle for the liberties of Europe.
As inhabitants of this Province, whoso
boast it is to be an integral portion of
the British Empire, we feel proud of tlie
achievements of the gallant men who so
successfully vindicated their country s
renown at Alma, Balaclava and Inker-

As citizens of Toronto we rejoice that
a fellow-townsman so nobly braved those
dreadful encounters and participated
with such honour to himself in those
glorious triumphs.
The Municipal Corporation of your
native city desire to mark their sense
of your gallant services, and to convey
to you some proof of their estimation
more substantial than words.
It becomes, therefore, my pleasing duty,
in the name of the people of Toronto, to
present you with this sword. Should the

that it will be drawn with distinction to
yourself and with honour to your Coun

JOHN BEVERLEY ROBINSON,
Mayor of the City of Toronto.
A. T. McCORD,
Chamberlain.
Common Council Chamber,
Toronto, 31st October, 1856.
To the foregoing address Major Wells
made a brief but courteous reply, one sen
tence of which must be given verbatim. It
" As the son of a soldier, well known
to many of you, and respected by all who
knew him, I feel I have done nothing
more than my duty, and am convinced
that every Canadian when called upon
would do the same."
The sword presented with the address
was of simple " regulation " pattern,
The actual "presentation" weapon
was forwarded to Major Wells some
time later. On ita receipt he sent the
following letter to the Mayor :
Wednesday, 18th Feb y, 1867.
My Dear Robinson, I have this day re
ceived the gratifying testimonial unani
mously voted me by the Corporation of
the City of Toronto, viz., "The Sword,"
but cannot accept it without endeavour
ing to express my sinceie thanks to your-
eelf and the committee for the very able
manner in which you have carried out
the wishes of the corporation, and most
undoubtedly not the least gratifying to
I me, is that the entire sword was mad*
i in Toronto. The design by Mr. Arm-
| strong (truly Canadian) has been done
: justice to by Mr. Morrison, and would
do credit and would stand competition
, with anything that had been ordered
! from the mother country, where it will
j very shortly be my pride to wear it aa
a good specimen of Canadian taste and
j workmanship.
And proud am I to have received it
at the hands of an old Upper Canada Col
lege boy. Very faithfully yours,
F. WELLS.
In the early part of 1857 Major Wells
returned to his regiment, and served with
it in India and elsewhere until he retired
from the army Ln 1871.
In 1866 Major Wells became lieutenant-
colonel in the army. He had some tinuj
previously married Georgina Mary, daugh
ter of Dr. Dartnell, Surgeon-Major in the
same regiment as himself. They had sev
eral children, two only of whom survive
George, who is in Natal, South Africa,
and Mrs. De Peucier, who lives in the
old homestead on Davenport Hill, in the
morning room of which hang th sword
worn by Colonel Wells during the Crimea
as well as others he used during his Ber-
vice. There are trophies and curiosities
scattered throughout the house, each one
of which has a history of it own.
Mrs. Wells died at Davenport, where
Colonel Wells was residing after his re
tirement, on May 11, 1873, and wa buried
at St. James cemetery. The Colonel then
went to England, and took up his abode
near Leamington, Warwickshire, whera
he died in 1877, aged 55 years. He was
a gallant soldier and a courteous
gentleman.
CHAPTER V.~
YONGE STREET
The Earlier Road Makers The German

The ICIver Veil.
Tonge street, as everyone now is aware,
is the direct road through the Province
of Ontario, leading from Lake Ontario
to Georgian Bay. For many yeara after
it was first laid out it wa* known as
Yonge street road. Oniy within the last
half century has it been universally
known as Yonge atreat only.
It was named after General Yonge, and
many different people had a share i
its construction. Among these waa
William Berczy, a German by birth, who
came over from the State of New York
to Canada in 1794, bringing with him
sixty-four families of Germans, who had
only a very brief period earlier left
Hamburg to make their homes in
LANDMARKS OF TORONTO.
York. When Berczy reached York (To
ronto) it was a hamlet and no more.
There were not more than one hundred in
habitants. Youge street only existed on
paper, north of Lot street, what is now
Queen street, and "was a mere path from
the line of Queen street to the water s
edge. But Berczy wae not a man who
was easily daunted. He set to work with
his emigrants lo construct a road, and
they did as is told in the following
letter from him :
**
A. D. 1794. During the time I was
thus obliged to remain idle I had many
interviews with Governor Simcoe, in
which he communicated to me several
plans for the improvement of the pro
vince, and among others for the plan of
Mr. Rocheblave, which ten led to form
a new and shorter communication for
the fur trade to the far distant factories
in the North-west, through Youge street,
the river Hollanl aud Lake Simcoe into
Lake Huron- He endeavoured to con
vince me of the advantages which the
completion of this new communication
would afford for rendering more valu
able my lanls in Markham, and neglect-
in? nothing that could animate me also
in this point to co-operate in accom
plishing the views of Government. Near
ly midway on Yonge street, between Lake
Ontario and Gwillimbury, the Provincial
Government had reserved four lots of 200
acres each, situated equally on both
fides of the road through which the river
Don runs, to be sold for raising a fund
to be employed towards the making of
Yonge street a practicable road for wag-
Sons. These four lots he offered me for
that purpose, ;ini although I consider
ed that their value was not a compensa
tion adequate to the expense required for
that object, I accepted his offer in con
sideration of the advantage which in
directly would arise to me from this
undertaking, by enhancing my own
lanis the more, as I had already, be
sides the 64.000 not very remote from
it, the township of Darlington, which
was one of those purchased of Andrew
Pierce by me, and that I intended to
take in the vicinity also, the second
township, which the Governor had pro
mised me when I consented to devote
my first operations towards the settle
ment of the land in the rear of York.
I resolved not o^y to do this, but cou-
idering myself to be the indisputable
proprietor of a very extensive tract ol
waste laud/, I determined immediately to
cut through the woods at my own ex
pense a sufficiently large and comfort
able road lor the passage of waggons
for( a distance of about 30 miles through
the lands to be laid out for my first
! settlement with all the necessary bridges
, over the waters which I should find in
my way, and this I executed afterwards,
being convinced of the truth that the
I making of roads is one of the most effi
cient means for rendering the inhabi
tants of any country comfortable and
j wealthy, and that the expectations of
i these accommodations would attract such
! a numerous concourse of people as is
j necessary to bring about the speedy
population of a wilderness, without them
even the best of such lands would never
rise to a considerable pecuniary value.
In the beginning of September the Sur
veyor-General notified to me at last
that they had sent over to York a de
puty suveyor with orders to lay out the
outlines of my lands, the first move im
mediately necessary was concession lines
with the division posts for the lots. At
that time I sent to you the greatest
part of the grown men among my people,
together with about sixty hired axemen,
ordering them all to begin the work on
Youge- street, and to clear out a part of
the lot where York was to be built. But
as my lands were not yet surveyed as
much as above mentioned, I could not
begin the performance of the road in it
before the 24th of October, 1794, at
which time the Deputy-Surveyor, Mr. Tis-
dell, gave me a draught of his work, and
not before the middle of November I
could bring any of my people to the place
of their habitation. It is easy to con
ceive to what hardships and excessive
losses I must have been subjected before
I could overcome in that season of the
year all the difficulties incumbent upon
settling a considerable number of people
in a distant part of the woods, far from
habitations which could afford me assist
ance in any considerable degree, either
of victuals or of articles of the first ne
cessity of whatever kind.
Belying, however, on my grant, the
land I had acquired of Andrew Pierce,
and the further promises I had received
as well from the Governor in Council as
of him in private^ I submitted cheerfully
to all these difficulties in the fullest con
victions, that these lands would through
my exertions to improve them, cover by
their acquired value all my disburse
ments, and procure a proportionate com
pensation for the difficulties which I had
now to overcome, the more as I looked
at this first and most difficult work only
as a preparation for easier and less
costly settlements. In the latter part of
November the Governor came for a short
time to York and as then I had already
finished a great part of Youge street and
the roads through my settlement making
on the whole 45 miles waggon road upon
which my waggons carried out heary

loads for the supply of my people. He
was extremely well pleased with my ac-
tirity and rapid progress, and sent the
mornhig after his arrival an express
to my settlement \vhere I then
was, by which he notified to
me his aVrival and the short stay he
should make, desiring that I would as
soon as possible come to see him. At
our meeting in York he manifested to me
in the most flattering manner his satis
faction, and as a proof o his approbation
he desired me to accept the commission
of a magistrate in the district of York
and a commission of a captain of the
militia in order to embody my people,
as well as the fe\v neighbouring settlers,
in a militia company. T.he first of these
commissions I asked permission yet to
decline until the laborious business of fix
ing my settlers should be finished in the
greater part, finding it almost impos
sible, in the pressure of so much intricate
occupation, that there should remain to
me time enough to discharge so as it
ought to be expected, the duties of magis
trate. Respecting the militia commission,
I accepted it, as it could not interfera
very essentially with my other business,
and I promised the Governor that until
a regular commission should be made out
I would embody my men and lead them
to the knowledge of their militia duty.
At the time when I was minutely explor
ing my tract of land for the purpose of
laying out the roads and to fix on the
most eligible spot for my first settlement,
I came to a river, which afterwards was
called the "Nen," at a place in a direct
line eighteen miles distant from Lake
Ontario, which at that place I iound
sufficiently deep to admit the navigation
of large boats or bateaui for a consider
able distance higher up to the north
west, provided there should be no con
siderable falls or very strong rapids in
it. In order to ascertain this, I returned
without delay to York, from whence I
went in a bateau upon Lake Ontario to
seek the outlet of that river. The third
river I met along the shore of the lake
appeared to be sufficiently large to be
the river I wished to explore. I entered
it, and found its outlet of sufficient depth
to afford a harbour to the schooners
which are ued upon the lake; but having
continued my navigation for about four
miles upwards in a north-west direction,
I was prevented by fallen timber and drift
wood from persisting in my navigation.
I, therefore, left my bateau, and continued
to follow on foot the shore of the river
until I came in the evening of the second
day to the very same place where at
first I had met this river. Havling
observed all along the way that it con
tinued in a gentle course, to keep with
out interruption the same depth as at
first I observed, and having afterwards
continued to walk along it for about 20
miles higher up to the north-west, I ob
served it always capable of affording?
a good navigation. This observation I
communicated to Governor Simcoe in giv-
iag my opinion, that this Driver when
cleared of its encumbrances of fallen tim
ber, drift-wood and beaver dams, would
admit of an uninterrupted navigation from
Lake Ontario until very near Gwillim-
bury, from whence the River Holland be
gins to be navigable into Lake Simcoe,
and that there would remain between
these two rivers only a portage of a
very few miles, which, as I conceived,
could also easily be made navigable by
means of a cJnal, that by an easy water
communication goods might be carried)
in boats from Lake Ontario without un
loading, until the Falls of Sault Stev
Marie, in the straits which separate Lake
Huron from Lake Superior, a method of
conveying the goods to and from tha
North-west greatly more advantageous
than the transport over Yonge street,
as proposed by Mr. de Rocheblave. Tha
Governor being convinced of the great
benefit that would result to the province
from that discovery, if advantage is tak^n
of it, very anxiously encouraged me to
undertake the performance of this inland
navigation, for which purpose he offered
to grant me a considerable spot of land
at the outlet of the River Nen, in order
that I might fix there at its proper
time a harbour for the vessels coming
from the lake, to establish a landing
and erect the necessary buildings for the
reception of the grods to be shipped there
for the North-west trade, and for the
present and future inhabitants of that
district. A great part of my lands lying
along the River Nen, the Governor knew
perfectly well that, my interests being
so closely connected with the public bene
fit, it would not be difficult in persuading
me to undertake this new enterprise. I
consider that the enhancement of my
land promised an adequate compensation
for the expense and labour which it would
cost me, and looked upon the land offered
me by the Governor only as an absolutely
necessary object and an additional ad
vantage. I declared, therefore, to the
Governor that if I should obtain the
(proffered spot at the inouth of the River
Nen for establishing the necessary com
modities as above mentioned, I
would without hesitation immedi
ately go to the expense of mak
ing that river navigable, from the
lake to the uppermost end of my own
lands, and that if afterwards I could
agree with Government I would not de-

eiat uutil by an uninterrupted inland
navigation through Lake Simcoe I had
connected Lake Ontario with Matchedash
Bay in Lake Huron. In consequence of
this declaration, so congenial with the
sanguine views of the Governor, we came
yery soon to the conclusion finally to
settle this matter early in the ensuing
spring, at which time the Governor pro
mised to return to York from Oswe-
gatchie, where he intended to pass the
winter. During this time I continued to
fix my settlers as comfortably as pos
sible for the circumstances, although
under great difficulties, and prepared
hewn timber for a large frame house
to be erected as soon as the ground
should be free from frost and snow, at
the very place where I had first met
the river Nen, with a view that thia
place should serve for an intermediate
etop to the projected inland navigation.
I took also care to establish settlers all
along the river Nen throughout my tract
of land, in order to facilitate the means
for clearing it for navigation. At the
eame time I began the building of a com-
fortnble house and magazine in the town
of York, and in my settlement on the
riyer Don a saw-mill with a dwelling-
house, in order that early in the spring
my settlers might enjoy the facility of
getting proper materials for building
their houses, having erected only tempo
rary huts for their first habitations dur
ing the winter.
In order to facilitate the settlement of
Tonge street, I had also taken from Gov
ernment a lot of land on the same about
half-way between York and Gwillimbury,
upon which I built a house and estab
lished two Pennsylvania Germans, who
had joined ine when I sent my people
from Niagara over to York, one of which
had a wife and seven children.
Early in the spring of 1795 Governor
Sdmcoe returned to York, and we con
cluded our proposed scheme respecting
the navigation of the river Nen, for which
purpose I came with the Deputy Sur
veyor of the district to my own house,
where, having with him the map of the
country, we agreed about the spot of
land to be allotted to me at the mouth
of the river, which he ordered the sur
veyor to set apart for me, and having
given me a location ticket for it, he
urged me immediately to begin the clear
ing of the river, the erecting of a wharf
and of some buildings for a depository
to store up goods which he landed there
from the vessels coming across the lake,
until they could be conveyed in boats
upon the river. These buildings being,
however, not of so immediate urgency, I
preferred delay in erecting them until
the possession of this spot should be con
firmed by an Order-iu-Coimcil, and having
communicated this objection to the Gov
ernor, he found it but reasonable, the
more as I promised to begin the clear
ing of the river, which I began without
delay a few days after the conclusion
of our agreement. In the beginning of
July, when I had already cleared the
river so far that I could pass upon it
for about 24 miles, from the lake up-
I wards, with a boat of about a ton bur-
I then, I went over to Niagara, where
i the Governor was, for the purpose of ask-
j ing by an Order-in-Couiicil, the
j confirmation, first of the two town-
I ships promised and set apart for me by
| the Governor, when I acceeded to his
i proposition to settle my people in the
i rear of York, and at the same time to
! take out the patent for the first grant of
the G4,000 acres already settled, to which
I considered myself fully entitled in con
formity to the tenor of the proclamation
ispued in the King s name on the 7th
February, 1792 (a), and more especially
in consequence of which is expressed under
article the fifth, viz., that six months
after the settlers should have received
the warrant of survey a patent should
follow if desired, and twelve months hav
ing elapsed since I received the warrant
of survey.
On my arrival at Niagara I communi
cated to the Governor the three objects
which had induced me to come there,
which he highly approved, but there being
at that time not a sufficient number of
the members of the Executive Council
present to form a quorum, he advised
me in the interim to present to the sur
veyor-general my location ticket for the
lands on the river Nen, in order to re
ceive of him a certificate after inspec
tion of the maps and the protocols of his
office, that the said lands were yet wn-
located, and afterwards all the money
requests should be settled at once before
the Council, which he would call as soon
as the absent members, whom he soon ex
pected, should arrive.
By the Surveyor-General s examination
I learned shortly that the lands given me
by the Governor on the River Nen were
already granted in the greatest part to
another person, two years before, and
especially that part lying immediately at
the outlet, which he proved by showing me
his docket book. He proposed, however,
another unlocated spot adjoining these
lands, but considerably higher up on the
river. I observed to the Governor on this
subject that I could decide nothing until
I had examined the depth of the river
where it ran through the tract of land
now proposed, as it would not answer my
purpose if this depth should not be suf
ficient to admit the entry of the vessels

change, hi order that the execution of ,

William Berczy, it is sad to say, was
a great loser by his enterprise. He
erected the first saw and grist mill in
Tork County. They were built on lot

The Gazetteer of 1799, in a note re
ferring to Markham, speaks of its good
mills, also of its "thriving settlement

Berczy left Upper Canada in 1799, and
went to Montreal. Then a year or two
later went back to the United States,
where he died a disheartened man in 1813. .
CHAPTER VI.
CHARLES ROBERTSON S STORE,
>oic Reminiscences of Ibe "Fifties" Some :
Old Time Business Men The fast and the
Present.
Exactly opposite Toronto street, on the
south side of King street, was erected
in 1850 by Charles Robertson, jmuior, the
store with d \velling home overhead repre
sented in the engraving. Mr. Robertson
was a Scotchman, a younger brother
of John Robertson, the wholesale dry
goods merchant on Yonge street, and when
be had built this store, which was num
bered 42 King street west, be opened
it as a dry goods emporium, and there)
carried on business lor many years.
After ho retired he lived in Sharon. He
dicd_iu 1871 and ..was buried in tha
Necropolis.
Next door west of Charles Robertson s
place of business -was for many years
in establishment in the same business
conducted by a well known man, Samuel
Heakes. About 1857 this business was
given up, Mr. Heakes going elsewhere.
His private residence was on Adelaide
street, at that time (1850-56) a good
residential quarter. He died in Toronto,
at an adranced age, in 1891, leaving
a large number of deeceadauts. :
Below Mr. Robertson s, that is, to the
*ast of it, was Thomas Haworth s hardV
ware store, the sign of the circular saw,
which hung suspended over King street,
feeing as well known a? the Big Padlock
of Kite Lewis was on the opposite side.
TJiomafi Ha worth was a native of
Rawtc-iBtall, Lancashire, England,
where he was born in 1798. He came to
Canada in 1825, and at first settled in
Montreal, but shortly after his arrival
removed to Brockville, whore he opened
the first hardware store ever establish
ed in that town. Tn 1835 he disposed of
his Brockville business and came to To
ronto, wher^ he at once commenced work
as a retail har.lware dealer on the site
now occupied by the restauniit on the
western corner of Leader Lane and King
street. The thoroughfare was in later
years often spoken of and known as
Post-office Ian3 from the fact that it
was the direct route from Kin? street
to the post-office. Mr. Haworth resided
over his store nntil 1851, when he re
moved to a dwelling house on the north
side of Richmond street, near Church
street. He continued to trade on King
street nntil 1860, when the business was
transferred to the corner of Yonge and
Melinla streets.
Mr. Haworth was 0113 of the promoters
ani a member of the first board of di
rector of the Bank of Toronto. He was
also a member of the first Board of
Trade and one of the original directors
of the Western Insurance Company. He
was an Anglican, an attendant during
the whole of his resident in Toronto at
St. James Cathedral. During the rebel
lion of 1837 he was under arms and was
oua of the force who inarched out to
Montgomery s tavern. Mr. Haworth mar
ried Frances Elliott, the daughter of a
gentleman in the English civil service.
By this marriage he had a large family,
four eons and six daughters, all of whom
it is somewhat singular to say arJ still
alive (1895). Mrn. Hawcrih died in 1870
aged 05. Her husband survived her un
til 1878, when he too passed away after
less than an hour s illness. He was in
hfo 60th year. Both he and his wife were
interred in St. James cemetery.
Again, to the east, on the eastern corner
of Leader Lane and King street, was the
well-known store of Brewer & McPhail,
stationers and booksellers. It was an ex
ceedingly well-known place of business,
and they were largely patronized by the
boys attending the Model School, then
(1850) on King street, a very little to
the west, on the same side of the street
where Government House now stan- s.
The King street of the early fifties was
a widely different spot to what it is in
this, the autumn of 1895. Beyond Bay
street on the w r est, and George street on
the east there was scarcely a single
place of business certainly not one in
Che retail trade of any importance. Most
of the store keeper*, though not quite all
of them, lived over their places of busi-

nees. Excepting from Yonge street to
Leader Lane ou the southern side of the
street the sidewalks were of wood. In
the one spot just particularized they
were stone flagged, and the roadway was
of macadam. There was 110 delivery of
letters, each tradesman having to send
to the post office to obtain those that
came for him. Iron shutters aiid plate
glass was almost unknown, the former
had not been introduced at all, and the
latter waa only just coming into use. Mr.
Robertson s store created a decided
change in the appearance of that portion
of the street where it was situated. It
was in a different style of architecture
to any of its neighbours, and it was, be
sides, almost, if not quite, the first at
tempt that had been made to break
through the monotonous plain brick fronts
that had hitherto marked the appearance
of the street. It was a building at once
useful and ornamental, and when it was
pulled down in 1894 by the Messrs. Catto
to make room for an extension of their
premises, it was, in most respects, in as
good condition as when it was erected.
After the store was vacated by Mr. Rob
ertson it was occupied by J. G. Geikie, by
Roll & Adam, and by Adam & Stevenson,
all booksellers and stationers.
Of ail those who were in business on
the south side of King street in 1850, only
four are now represented by men of the
same name, members of the same family,
and carrying on the same trade.
CHANGES INJTONGE STREET.
Hie Armstrong Foundry The Old-Time
Tradespeople Modern Improvements
Reminiscences of the Past.
A very short time often suffices to
make great changes in the appearance
of certain localities. There are not
many places in Toronto where the
changes have been so great within a
very brief period than in Youge street,
on both sides of the road,, north of Ade
laide street, as far as Queen street.
Take for instance the north-east corner
of Yonge and Richmond streets, compare
its appearance in the latter end of 1895
with what it was in 1888, only seven
years earlier, and one is amazed at the
transformation. The engravings given
show the locality in 1888. Any reader of
The Telegram knows what it is like now.
True the Bay Horse Hotel is there, but
it waa all but destroyed by the great
fire of March, 1895, and has been pretty
well re-built. The old store for men s
underwear, with its Venetian jalousies,
some of them, indeed, missing even then,
has been razed to the ground, and so
has the furniture warehouse which war.
next door to it. Turning into Richmond
street, the real estate agency of Mr. Bow-
den, as well as the X. L. C. R. billiard
rooms, are things of the past. So is the
old City foundry, of which the proprietor
for many years was J. R. Armstrong. Mr.
Armstrong was in business there as far
back as the early " forties," and few
manufactories in the city were better
known. He had his private residence for
several years in one of the red brick
houses on the south side of Queen street,
about three doors from Church street.
Later he removed to the eastern side of
Jarvis street, living in a large stuccoed
three-storey house, which, though alter
ed since his time, is still standing. He
still later removed to 88 D Arcy street,
where he died about ten years since.
On the corner of Richmond and Vic
toria streets was a large frame build
ing, latterly a cheap lodging house, but
originally built for a hospital, and occu
pied as such, it being the Lyiog-in Hos
pital for a considerable number of years.
It opened June lot, 184.8, and remained
open until about 1860, when it was turn
ed into a lodging-houee. Mrs. Jane Win
ter was matron during a considerable
portion of the time that the building was
a hospital. In 1890 the Confederation
Life Association acquired the whole of
this locality, and levelling all the old
houses, erected thereon the building
which now adorns the site.
Another vauished place is the tumble
down frame building which stood at 170
Yonge street, on the western side, be
tween Richmond and Queen streets, next
to the premises then occupied by Kent
Bros., as jewellers. Edward II. Grant-
ham kept a saloon in these premises,
numbered 170 in 1861, but a few year
later, about 1864, he opened them aa
an oil and lamp store, and there contin
ued in business until 1872, or possibly
a very little later. Edward Grantham
was the son of John Grantham, a native
of Lincolnshire, England, who came to
Toronto in the early part of 1836, and
resided here, or in the immediate vicin
ity, until his death, which occurred at hi*
sou s residence, July 3, 1866. At a later
date it was used as a rifle gallery, and
also as a small stationer s shop. John
Grogan, a well-kuo -rn boot and shoe
dealer, had his store there during the
" fifties," it being one house at th
time. Of late it was constantly changing
tenants, and is chiefly interesting from
the fact that it remained standing, de
spite the march of improvements, until
1890.
In two years the western side of Yong
west, liai been altered over and ovef
again. From, the north- west corner of

Richmond and Youge streets to the jewel
lery ahop of Messrs. Kent Eros., there
kaa been little change, but passing that
place of business, one cornea to the pal
atial place of business erected 011 the site
occupied by the old shooting gallery re
ferred to earlier. Next to it again is a
nevr building, and on the south- west cor
ner of Yonge and Queen streets are the
new premisses in course of erection for Mr.
Robert Simpson. But it must not be sup
posed that the present Simpson store su
persedes the one pictured by the cut. It
U the third first-class building for busi
ness purposes that has been on the same
place within the last two years. The
stores shown in the engraving were taken
down by Mr. Simpson less than two years
ago, in the autumn of 1893 in fact, and
quickly afterwards were larger and more
commodious premises erected. These had
only just been finished, everything was
new and apparently in the best of order,
when there came the great fire of March,
1895, and Simpson s new store was a
thing of the past.
Forty years ago part of this corner was
and had been for ten years occupied by
James Leask, who dealt in groceries,
wines, spirits and dry goods. At that
time the shop on the actual corner itself
was unoccupied. It was a very small,
unimportant building. On the south-east
corner was the warehouse of A. Mc-
Glashan & Co., and over it the office of
the Board of Agriculture. Years later
this latter institution had its habitation
on the north-west corner of Qeen and
Yonge streets.
In 1865 William Lyou Mackenzie waa
editing and publishing the Weekly Mes
senger, in the Elgin Buildings, 79 Yonge
rtreet. Dodgson, Shields & Morton had
a large grocery store on the southern.
corner of Yonge and Temperance streets,
and on the same side of the street, some
two or three doors to the north of Queen
street, was a tavern known as the Frank
lin House, kept by one John Montgomery.
To complete thw retrospect, let us glance
at the occupants of the eastern side of
the street, from King to Queen street.
The Crown Lands office was at 46 1-2. It
was the second house going north. Next
to it was Green e, the gunmaker. Mr.
Green was a noted character. He be
came mail agent afterwards 0:1 the Allan
line of steamers, and had the most exalted
ideas of the importance of his office. 1
He was a aealous officer, though, and
did his work well. He was very fond of
company and of joking. One of his stand
ard ftoaets at dinners or suippers was
this :
"May those who are single soon marry,
May those who are married be happy."
Mr. Green died in Quebec in 1894.
Hiram Piper was next door north o/
Green s. Who, that can carry their mem
ories back for forty or fifty years, do not
remember Piper s store ? It was a To
ronto institution. Still further north was
the Phoenix foundry of John McGee, and
a little further on the booksellers store
of J. C. Geikie. Crowing Adelaide street,
on the northern corner was the hardware
store of S. Shaw & Sons, noted for their
axes. Then a number of small stores,
chiefly devoted to the sale of boots and
shoes, and at No. 92 the Bay Horse Inn,
kept by Thomas Best. That house in
those days was a great resort for farm
ers from Toronto Township and Hogg s
Hollow, as many as forty horses often
being stabled at Best s in one day.
the south-east corner of Richmond and
Yonge streets was Shapter & Confbe *
drug store, and exactly opposite F. Beth-
ell s grocery store. Samuel Thompson kept
the Globe Hotel at No. 118, and the re
maining occupants up to Queen street
were but sma.ll dealers. In Yonge street,
as everywhere else, scarcely any of tbe
old-time firms are now represented. Only
j one remains in that part of the itreet
with which this sketch deals.
CHAPTER ViflT
BARTHOLOMEW BULL S HOUSE-
The First Brick Hou.se Greeted In the Town
ship of York Those Who IMamied Built
and Dwelt In It.
Just outside the city limits a Jittle
north of Davenport Road, and at no very
great distance from the station of the
same nmie on the Northern, now Grand
Trunk Railway, stood for more
than fifty years, a substantial brick
house, the first of that material ever
erected in York township, and for forty-
eight years the home of ons of the
pionaers of the township, Bartholomew,
or, as he was more popularly knowiv
Bartley Bull.
Spring Mount, for so the residence was
named, was erected by Mr. Bull in the
i year 1830, an l there was no other brick
j house near it for many a year after
wards. Aikenshaw, the Thomson resi-
I dence, some two miles to the west, was
not built until 1844, and George Cooper s
mansion overlooking Davenport station,
I was much later still.
Thomas Metcalfe, of Toronto, was the
builder of the house, he tioijig all the
brick work. George H. White supplied
the carpentering and wood work, and
Gilbert Pearcey did the painting. Each of
these tradesmen were well known to
Torontouians of that period, and some
of Gilbert Pearcey s descendants uowr
live in or near the city.

early years of his life iu Ireland, leaving
there for Canicla iu 1S18. Ou arriving
in this country he settled near York and
commenced fariniug and in 1830 erected
the house already spoken of. One who
knew him well writes : "Mr. Bull was
well and widely known to almost every
early settler in the County of York, as

Though now surrounded by house? on
all sides, and, if one takes the street

from Yonge street, the massive and
familiar building on Queen street west,
occupied for nearly fifty years as the
Provincial Lunatic Asylum, was, when
erected, wholly in the country. It waa
SPRING MOUNT, DAVENPORT.
Mr. Bull waa a member of the Metho
dist body and did all that he could both
in working and by donations from his
means to further the progress of that
denomination. It is chiefly owing to the
exertions of Bartholomew Bull and Geo.
Copper that the Methodist body have ob
tained such a strong hold upon the peo
ple residing in or near Davenport.
Mr. Bull died in 1878, having passed
his eighty -seventh birthday. One of his
sons holds an official position in . the
county, and other of his descendants are
living in various portions of the pro
vince. Spring Mount has been taken
down-
in 1S4G that the building was commenced,
the corner stone being laid by Chief Jus
tice Robinson with becoming ceremonial,
on Saturday, August 22, 1846.
Before gbing the particular* of that
event, let a retrospective glance be
taken at the neighbourhood of the asylum
as it was half a. century since, that it, in
1845. The old homestead of the Shaw
family, a little to the north-east, waa
then the residence of Captain Alexander
Sha-w, he farming some fifty acres
surrounding the house. The Girins* house
was a little to the west of Oak Hill, and
with the exception of a few houses on

afterwards destroyed by fire another
tavern on the eastern corner of Queeii
aad Dundas streets, and Mr. Feunings
Taylor s residence on the western cor
ner, the whol of the reat of the land
was either uncleared or cultivated as
farms or gardens. Trinity College was
not built, not even thought of, and there
was no school, church or chapel within
several miles north or east, and only a
small place of worship belonging to the
Methodists about a mile to the west.
It is unnecessary in this chapter to refer
to any of the families that have just
been mentioned; they have all been spoken
of elsewhere and hill details given re
specting them.
The morning of August 22nd, 1846, was
dull and threatening, and it was feared
that the day s proceedings would be seri
ously interfered with by the weather;
but it cleared up, and about two o clock
the various bodies who were to take part
in the day s proceedings began to a-
t enable at the old Government Howe, on
Kiag street west. Mr. R. L. Denison act
ing as marshal. First came the band
of the 81st Regiment, then stationed at
the Old Fort; then the fire companies,
followed by the members of the St.
George s, St. Andrew s and St. Patrick s
Societies, *ch society bearing its own
banner. Then came the Home District
nnd the City Councils, the Chief Justice
and judges, the Oddfellows and a large
number of citizens.
On arrival at the grounds the com-
pay proceeded to the north-eastern cor
ner of the building. The architect, Mr.
J. Q. Howard, then placed in a cavity
lD|f ath the stone a copy of RowseU a
almanac for 1846, Brown s City Direc
tory, a copy of the last issue of the
<5*ty daily papers, and the following
coins, a sovereign, half-sovereign, crown,
half-crown, shilling, sixpence, four-
penny piece, penny and half-penny of the
Victorian era, two old penny piecea, a
billing each of George n. and George
III., also a written account of the mid
summer examinations at Upper Canada
College hx 1846, and two engravings of
Dr. Strachan s old school house at Corn
wall.
Upon a plate which covered the cavity
was engraved as follows :

The inscription was a very long one
and gave full particulars of who laid

the marshal of the day was engraved on
the plate.

duly laid the stons and then delivered
an address to the company. After that
was concluded the band played " Rule

The building was opened in June, 1848,
and contained in all apartments tor 204

In 1843, just 52 years since, occurred in
the Church of Scotland what is alwajp
pokea of now as the "disruption." In
that year, owing to the vexed question
of patronage, a great number of the
clergy as well a of the laity belonging
to the established Church of Scotland se
ceded from that body and formed them
selves into what has been known ever
tincc in Great Britain as the Free Church
of Scotland.
This division unhappily wae not confin
ed to Scotland, but soon spread to the
colonies. A considerable number of the
attendants at Old St. Andrew s Church.
situated at the eouth-weet corner of
Church and Adelaide streets, sympathized
with their seceding brethren at home, and
resolved to form themselves into a Free
Church in this country. They did GO, and
Kuox Church was one of the results of
thfe movement. They went further than
this, for they thought it necessary to found
a theological college, wherein might be
instructed young men desirous of becom-
ig ministers in Presbyterian pulpits.
though not necessarily in those of the Free
Church exclusively.
Knox College was instituted in 1844, at
a meeting held on October 14th, of the
Presbyterian Church in Canada. At that
meeting it was resolved to appoint pro-
fee^ors of divinity, literature and science,
these professors to have their residences
in Toronto.
The Rev. Andrew King, who had c<-.*u*
oat of this coumtry as a delegate from
the Free Church of Scotland, was ap
pointed professor of divinity pro tern,
while the Rev. Henry Esson, of St. Gab-
liel street church, Montreal, was the first
professor of literature and science. The
classes met kt a small room adjoining
Mr. Bason s house on James Btreet, not
far from where now stands Holy Trinity
church.
In the first session there were
j fourteen students, five of whom had al-
i ready commenced their studies at Queen s
! College, Kingston, prior to the disruption.
| At the same meeting Dr. Robert Burns,
I of Paisley, who was the first minister of
j Knox church, was appointed professor of
theology, the appointment being subject
to any contingency arising from the
synod resolving at some future time to
; separate the offices of professor au.d pas-
! tor.
In 1845 the appointments o! Dr. Burns
and Professor Essoii were confirmed.
In 1846 a committee was appointed by
the synod to consider what means should
be adopted to place the institution on a
more extended and efficient basis, and
they appointed a committee, whose duty
j it was to consider whether it was de-
| sirable to incorporate the college, what
name it should bear, how many professors
should be engaged, and what should be
be done towards erecting a suitable build
ing for the establishiQeBt of an academy
for the training of young men, and also
to consider if it was accessary to build
a toardiag house for the students. In due
course the committee reported that the
college should be ca^ed Knox College,
and that steps should, be taken to estab
lish an academy or hi^h school. This lat
ter came inlo being in the course of a
year, under the superintendence of the
Rev. A. Gale, M.A., formerly of Hamilton,

was done towards erecting buildings, but
both college and high school were removed
to Ontario Terrace, on the same spot
where now, improved and enlarged, stands
the Queen s Hotel.
In 1847 the professorship of theology
in Knox College was separated from th
incumbency of Knox Church. This was riot

In 1853 died Prof. Esson. He was suc-

hue since been affiliated with the To
ronto University, as is the Anglican
Theological College, at no great dis-
t.in-ce from it, known as Wycliffe.
In 1875 the college removed from Gros-
venor street to the handsome pile oi
buildings erected in Spadina crescent.
These buildings cost about $100,000. They
are as commodious as they are hand
some, and have ample class rooms, chapel,
library and students rooms. From 80
to 90 students can be comfortably accom
modated.
Among othens who have done good work
at Knox College may be mentioned the
Rev. William Rintoul, who was professor
of Hebrew, while the Rev. William Lyall,
in 1849 and 1850, rendered important
services to the college as professor of
literature and mental training. The
staff of the college on January 1st, 1895,

Situated on Grange avenue, just east
f the Grange, stood for many years a
house, the occupants of which have play
ed a by no meaiffi unimportant part in
Toronto history. " Pinehurst," for so the
house was called, can be seen from the
engraving to have been a substantial
and commodious building, well suited for
a large establishment of any kind. The
bouse itself was btiilt by Mr. Clarke
Gamble, Q.C., about 1840, and was his
home for about ten years, when he re
moved to Holland House. Mr. J. G. How
ard was the architect. In 1850 Monsieur
and Madame Dee-Landes rented Pine-
hurst from Mr. Gamble, and opened it a*
a ladies school, continuing there, having
a large and fashionable clientele, until
1853, when they were succeeded by one
of the most accomplished schoolmistresses
and charming of women, Mrs. Forster.
Mrs. Forster had been the wife of an
English army officer, and she was the
daughter of a Mr. Smith, who resided
in, one of the northern suburbs of London,
England, where Mrs. Forster was born.
The Rev. Thomas Smith Kennedy, former
ly secretary of the Toronto Churcii
Society, was a first cousin of Mre. Fpr-
ster, and on most intimate terms with
her. Mr. Kennedy died nearly thirty
years ago.
From 1853 until 1866 did Mrs. Forater s
school flourish, and probably no one who
ever acted as schoolmistress was more
liked by her pupite and more respected
by their guardians. In 1866 Mrs. Por-
ster s health broke down utterly anil
completely, and she was compelled to re
linquish her duties ; she was followed by
another lady of a different name, in an
other locality. For many years MTB.
Forster was a chronic invalid, but sur
vived until May, 1876, when she passed
away. She was buried in St. Jams
cemetery. When at Pinehorst Mrs. For
ster was, with her entourage, a prom
inent figure in St. George s church, being
a great friend of the rector and of inairy
of those who formed the congregation.
Among many other prominent Canadian
families whose daughters were educated
at Pinehurst may be mentioned the Cum-
mings, of Chippewa, the Fullers of Niag
ara, the O Reillys of Hamiltoa, the Law-
rasons f London, the BeUs of Cariton
Place, and the Bettridges of Woodstock.
Ot Toronto families there were, of course,

pulled down about nine years ago to
make way for the exteneion of McCanl
street to College street.
MISS MACN ALLY S SCHOOL.
This establishment was on the norti
side of Wellington street, in the Uvrge
brick house, etill standing, east of Emily
street. Rev. Michael WiHis, D.D., prin
cipal of Knox College in 1866, lived next
door. The school was kept by Misa Mae-
Nally, a. Dublin lady, assisted by her
three sisters, though Miss MacNally was
the lady who was at the head oi the
establishment and who exercised entire
control over everything. It was in 1846
or 1846 that the school was commenced,
and it was carried on by these ladies for
about twelve years, until Miss Mac-
Nally s marriage with Mr. John Boyd,
the sometime principal of the once fam
ous school on Bay street. Miss Mac
Nally was one of the most accomplished
of linguists, speaking French, German and
Spanish with equal facility, and it WM
her invariable practice to address the
various professors of these languages who
taught in her school in their own tongue.
Among Miss MacNally s pupil* were mem

families, of Toronto, also some of the

daughter of an English officer, and her
school was an exceedingly popular one.

In 1839 a commission was appointed
by the Government of the day to en
quire into the state of education ia the
LANDMARKS OF TORONTO.
province of Upper Canada, the commis
sioners for the purpose being the Rev.
John McCaul, D,. D., Principal of Upper
Canada College ; Rev. Henry James
Graeitt, at that time assistant minister
of St. James church, afterwards rector,
and latterly Anglican Dean of Toronto,
and Samuel Bealey Harrison, Esq., who
Jn after years was so well known as one
of the county judges. Mr. James Hop-
kirk was the secretary. ,
The report issued by this commission
was a meet exhaustive one. They re
viewed the whole course of legislation
that had been adopted from 1797 to
1833, giving extracts from the several
Acts of Parliament passed in the years
1807, 1808, 1816, 1819 and 1833, this
last year being the final one in which
any legislation had been attempted on
the subject prior to the issuing of the
commission.
Respecting the District Grammar
chooLs which had been established un
der the Act of 1807, they recommended
that there should be uniformity as re-
garde the system, that all teachers should
pass an examination as to their
fitness (the state of education
in the province can be imagined
when it was necessary to make such a
.recommendation), that where the num
ber of pupils in each school exceeded 30
an assistant should be engaged, that all
school houses should be built on a uni
form plan, that there should be a cer
tain number of free pupils, and that all
schools should be systematically in
spected.
Respecting Model schools they also
made many recommendations for their
Improvement in the system of study and
the subjects to be taught.
Regarding Normal schools the report
wa most emphatic. "No plan of educa
tion can be efficiently carried out with
out the establishment of schools for the
training of teachers," and their recom
mendation was that the Central school
in Toronto should be a. Normal school,
with othera to be added as occasion
might require.
Tlhe commLssiianerH invited opinions from
imany of the leading men of the day on
the question of schools and their teach
ers, and it is worth while to giv brief
wrtracts from the replies of some oS
those who were consulted, Mahloa Bur-
well wrote : "I cannot conceive anything
more wanting in efficiency than our
present system for common school edu
cation." Rev. Robert Murray, who was
the first Superintendent of Education for
Upper Canada, wrote, describing it as,
"Tihe present wretched system of edu
cation." Then, suggesting a remedy, he
continued : "It appears absolutely neces
, to ensure the efficiency of a sys
tem, that men of education, who them
selves have had large experience iu the
education of youth, should be appointed
to superintend the whole system."
Bishop Strachau, speaking of the bill
drawn up by Mr. MaMoa Burwell, who*e
opinion has just been quoted, said : "The
Common School Bill drawn up by Mr.
Burwcll appears to be an able perform
ance. * * It is based on true prin
ciples."
The last opinion that it is necessarr
to quote is that of the Hon. P. B. Ite
Blaquiere. He was even more emph-ati-a
than was Mr. Burwell, saying : " The
j present condition of teachers is truly
wretched, and reflects great disgrace upon
the nation."
This wan the state of educational mat
ters when Upper and Lower Canada be
came united in 1840. Lord Sydeuham, in
his speech to the first Parliament, called
together in Kingston after the union, thus
expressed himself :
"A due provision for the education of
the people is one of the first duties of
the State, and, in this province especi
ally, the want of it is grievously felt.
The establishment of an efficient system,
by wlii-eh the blessings of instruction may
be placed within the reach of all, is a
work of diffk-ulty, but its overwhelming!
importance demands that it should be
nudertaJieu. I recommend the consider
ation of that subject to your best at
tention, and I shall be most anxious
to afford you, in your labours, all the co
operation in my power. If it should
be found impossible so to reconcile con
flicting opinions as to obtain a measure,
which may meet the approbation of all,
I trust that, at least, steps .may be
taken by which an advance to a more
perfect system may be made, and the
difficulty under which the people of this
3*ovince now labour may be greatly dim-
mished, subject to *uch imiproTeene&tfl
Ihetmafter as time and experience may
point out."
A School Act was passed the same ses
sion, applicable to both provinces, only to
be repealed in 1843 as being wholly un
workable in the lower province, and sep
arate acts were passed for each province,
and on them was impl auted a scheme to
apply to both Upper and Lower Canada
for public and common schools, with a
monetary appropriation of 50,000, or
$200,000, in aid of their support.
In a letter to Mr. I. G. Hodgius, of
Toronto, the Hon. Isaac Buchanan, writ
ing under date April llth, 1882, thus
tells how it caone about that such a very
large sum was obtained from the public
exchequer. He wrote :

** This first attempt of miae to get an
endowment for education (out of the
clergy reserve fund) failed, as there was
no responsible government then. But fire
years afterwards, when my election for
Toronto had carried responsible govern
ment, aad before the first Parliament
met, I wa talking to the Governor-Gen
eral (C. Poulett Thompson, Lord Syden-
Itam). He leit under considerable obliga
tion to me for standing in the breach
when Mr. Robert Baldwin found that he
eould not succeed iu carrying Toronto.
He spoke of Canada as a drag upon the
mother country. I replied warmly, for
I felt sure (as I told him) that if we were
allowed to throw the affairs of tbe pro
vince into regular books . . . we won Id
how a surplus over expenditure. His
Excellency agreed to my proposal, and I
stipulated that, if we showed a yearly
urplus, one -half would ,be given as an
endowment for an educational system,
Happily, we found that Upper Canada
had a surplus revenue of about 100,000
($400,000) one half of which the Parlia
ment of 1841 laid aside for education, the
law stipulating that every district coun
cil getting a share of it would tax locally
for as much more, and this constituted the
fund of your educational system."
In the early days of the Education De
partment the office was little more than
an appanage of the Provincial Secretary s
Department in Kingston, the then capi
tal. The first office opened in Toronto
was in Bay street, on the west side,
north of Front street, now No. 68.
In 1844 the office was removed to Co-
bourg. In 1846 it was again brought
back to Toronto, to its old quarters in
Bay street, and in 1849 it was in the
Albany Chambers, 011 the south side of
King street, west of York street, now
known as the Revere buildings. In 1852
it was removed to the present Normal
School.
The Rev. Robert Murray was appointed
Superintendent of Education for Upper
Canada, May llth, 1842, and he was
succeeded by the Rev. Egerton Ryerson
on October 18th, 1844.
The first Council of Public Instruction
was appointed in 1846. Their names
were as follows : Rev. Egerton Ryerson,
D.D., Chief Superintendent of Schools ;
Right Rev. Michael Power, D.D., Roman
Catholic Bishop of Toronto ; Rev. Henry
James Grasett, M.A., Rector of Toronto ;
Hon. Samuel Bealey Harrison, Q.C.,
County York Judge ; Joseph Cur ran Mor
rison, Q.C., M.P.P.; Hugh Scobie, Esq.,
of the British Colonist ; James Scott
Howard, Esq., County Treasurer.
In 1850 two additional members were
added to the commission. They were
Rev. Adam Lillie, D.D., a Congregational
mmister, who was, though, anything but
a " sectarian," being a man of very wide
sympathies, and Rev. John Jennings, a
well known Presbyterian preacher.
The first Normal School was on King
street west, in the old Government House,
the stables of which were fitted up as
a Model School. In 1849, when the Gov
ernment returned to Toronto the Nor
mal School was removed to the Tem
perance Hall, on Temperance street, and
in 1852 removed to the present buildings
in St. James square.
The corner stone of the existing Normal
School was laid -with great ceremony by
the Governor-General, the Earl of Elgin
and Kincardine, on July 2nd, 1851. The
71st Regiment, then stationed in To
ronto, furnished a guard of honour.
Amongst tho.-se present were the Anglican
and Roman Catholic Bishops of Toronto,
Colonel Sir He\v Dalrymple, Rev. H. J.
Grasett, Dr. Ryersou, and a great many
more.
The stone bore the following inscrip
tion:
"This Institution, Erected by the En
lightened Liberality of Parliament, is de
signed for the instruction and training of
School Teachers up on Christian Prin
ciples."
Lord Elgin s address was a nota{Wte
one, and has often been quoted and re
produced. Speakiug of the spread of edu
cation in Canada, he said how this coun
try had been able to profit by the ex
perience of older ones, adding that, ow
ing to " the diligent exertions and excel
lent judgment" of Dr. Ryerson. . . .
" fortified by the support of the Council
of Education, and the Government and
Parliament of the province, has enabled
Upper Canada to place herself in the van
among the nations in the great and im
portant work of providing an efficient
(system of general education of the whole
community. I do not think that I shall
be charged with exaggeration when I af
firm that this work is the work of our
day and generation that it is the prob
lem in our modern society which is most
difficult of solution. . . . How has
Upper Canada addressed herself to the
execution of this great work ? Sir, I un-
stand from your statements arid I come
to the same conclusions from my own in-
vestigation and observation that it is
the principle of our educational system
that its foundation be laid deep in the
firm rock of our common Christianity.
" Permit me to say, both as a humble
Christian man and as the head of the
civil government of the province, that
it gives me unfeigned pleasure to per

fect civil and religious equality. I say
it gives me pleasure to hear and to know
that they are receiving an education
which is fitted so well to qualify them
for the discharge of these important
duties ; and that while their hearts are
yet tender, they are associated under
conditions which are likely to provoke
amongst them the growth of those truly
Christian graces mxitual respect, for
bearance and charity."
Of the sixteen assistant counsellors ap
pointed to assist Dr. Ryerson from 1844
to 1876 not one survives. Their names
were Bishop Power, of revered memory ;
Hugh Scobie, Judge Harrison, Bishop
Fuller, Archbishop Lynch, Reverends A.
Lillie, John Jennings, John Ambrey, J.
Tabarat, John McCaul, John Barclay and
Samuel S. Nelles, Very Reverend Dean
Grasett, Hon. William McMaster and
James Scott Howard. It would be hard
to find a more truly representative list.
Dr. Ryereou continued in office until
February 21st, 1876, when he resigned
after thirty-two years service. He died
in Toronto on February 19th, 1882 ,
having all but completed his 79th year.
CHAPTER" xiv.
TINNING^_WHARF.
The Calling Place of the American Line of
Steamers -A Famous Boating Incident A
Triumphal Retm n.
One of the most well-known resorts on
the water front fifty years since was
the wharf of which the illustration is
given in this paper. It was always
known as Tinning s wharf, from the
name of its owner and builder.
Richard Tinning was a native of the
cathedral city of Carlisle, in the county
of Cumberland, where he was born in
the year 1801. He came to Canada in
1832, having previously married Ann
Tiffin, daughter of a family of the yeo
man class who had been domiciled in
Carlisle for several generations. Set
tling in York on his arrival in Canada,
Mr. Tinning, though engaged in many
other enterprises as well, was for the
whole of his life connected with the
shipping interests on the lakes. In 1836
he built the wharf which bore his name
at the foot of York street, slightly to
the< east of its termination at the water
front.
The wharf was constructed, as nearly
all wharven were in those days, of crib
work filled vith stones, and was a sub
stantial structure. At the north end
wad the office, and on the wharf itself
ware store houses and warerooms.
For several years the Donald Bethune
American line of steamers, the New
York and Northerner, tied up there when
in Toronto, and Mr. Tinning himself was
always a persona grata with their own
ers, officers and customers. During the
greater portion of the time Mr. Tinning
waa at the wharf he was assisted by his
son, also Richard Tinning, who, though
now fast becoming one of the -city s "old
est inhabitants," is hale and hearty, and
pleased to indulge in reminiscences of the
past.
Mr. Tinning died May 8th, 1858, and
the business devolved upon his son, whose
name has already been mentioned. Jn
October, 1858, Richard Tinning achiev
ed a very great distinction in the aqua
tic world. A crew of Chicago rowers
four-oared issued a challenge for the
" championship of the lakes," and a
purse of $2,000. This was taken up by
Richard Tinning, who, accompanied by
his brothers John and Thomas, William
Dillon, Michael Teedy and Richard Tin
ning as coxswain, went to Detroit, where
the race was to be rowed, and beat the
Americans off the course. Among those
who accompanied Tinning on this occa
sion were the Hon. David Macpherson and
Colonel C. S. Gzowski. On returning to
Toronto the victorious crew received a
tremendous ovation, and were feted on
all sides.
The race was pulled on October 16th,
1858, just thirty-seven years ago, and
with the single exception of William Dil
lon, all the contestants are still alive.
Michael Teedy is a member of the fire
department, in which he has been em
ployed for several years.
Closely adjacent to Tinning s wharf
was the St. James Hotel, kept for some
time by Mrs. Trotter, who had previously
kept the hotel in Ottawa where, on April
7th, 1868, Thomas D Arcy McGee was so
basely assassinated just as he was enter
ing the door.
For just fifty years Tinning s wharf
continued to flourish, but in 1886 the
Canadian Pacific railway, wanting to ex
tend, purchased the site on the Esplan
ade. The old wharf was soon dismantled,
the adjacent buildings on the Esplanade
pulled down, and now (1895) it is hard
to make out where it even was.

tion of the lakes. James Sparks was
born in Scotland, September 27, 1808,
and cam 1 ? to this country with his par
ents in 1818. At a very early age
Sparks began work as a sailor on Lake
Ontario, and continued at that calling
until he retired from active work. About
1840 Sparks bought the cottage, in which
easily kept warm in winter. It was an
old house when Captain Sparks bought
it, and he effected very extensive repairs.
A few years later he clap-boarded it,
| making its appearance what it is now.
I There is a tradition that it was erected
1 at or about the same time as Castle
i Frank, and is almost the only log house
still used as a dwelling place within the
city limits. Capt. Sparks during the
| winter, for many years, acted as tyler
; for the Masonic Lodge meeting in the
i Market Lane Hall, especially from 1822
!to 1850.
Captain Sparks commanded manv dif-

42 years later he passed away. As will
be seen from the cut which represents
it as it was then the house is a log-
built building, standing in its own gar
den, and was designed more for use than
for ornament. The ceilings are barely
seven feet from the floor, and the walls,
which are of squared timber, are about
eighteen inches deep. It possesses no hall,
the front door opens directly into the
sitting room, which is an apartment
about ten feet square, upon which open
two decidedly small bedrooms. There is
a kitchen in the rear and some sleeping
apartments in the half storey, and the
log house, though it is cool in summer, is
ferent achooners upon the lakes, his last
vessel being the Beaver, which was
wrecked at Rochester about 1865. He
died on September 5th, 1882, having al
most reached his 74th birthday, and was
buried in St. James cemetery. His
widow still lives in the pleasant old cot
tage, while one of his sous is in Govern
ment employ and lives near by the home
where he was born.

Tiew avenue. It was from about 1844 a
well known tavern, called the Rising Sun,
and was kept by a man named William
Knight. Owing to the fact that the old
race course was immediately in its rear,
the Sun was greatly patronized by sport
ing men and by those who followed in
their train. For many years it was the
only tavern between the Don river and
Leslie s nursery, situated on Queen street
east, then known as Kingston road, but
in the early " fifties " other houses were
opened, and in 1857 the race course was
wanls Chief Justice, William Baell
Richards.
The house itself was a pleasant, roomy
building-, built of frame rough-cast, with
a spacious verandah on two eidea of it.
It was built by Mr. John Crawford, who
was Lieutenant-Governor of Ontario
from 1873 until 1877, about 1845, and
by him sold to Judge Richards in 185;j.
When erected it was quite in the coun

Othello, "its occupation gone. Very
soon after the races ceased to be held on

CHAPTER XVI.
JUDGE RICHARDS HOUSE.
A Famous Canadian who Rose to the High
est Point in the Legal Profession-Honour-
ed by his Sovereign and his Coimtr.r.
On the south-east corner of Ann and
Tonge streets stood for many years the
house occupied during the whole of his
residence in Toronto by Judge, ai ter-
the changes in the city have been great
and a few years since the house was
pulled down to make way for shops and
warehouses.
William Buell Richards was a man
who by sheer force of ability and pains
taking industry rose from a compara
tively humble ppistion in life to one of
the highest positions, not only in his
profession, but in the Dominion.
Chief Justice Richards was born in
Brockville in 1814, and in 1831 com
menced the study of law under Mr. G.
Malloch, and on> the completion of hia
articles entered into partnership with
that gentleman, the firm being known
as Malloch & Richards. In 1848 he en-

tered Parliament as member for the
County of Leeds, defeating the late
Mr. Ogle R. Gowan hy sixty votes. From
1851 until June, 3853, he held the post
of Attorney- General West in the Hincks-
Morin Ministry, only retiring from that
position on being appointed to a puisne
judgeship in the Court of Common Pleas,
rendered vacant lay the death of the
Honourable R. B. Sullivan. In 1863 he
succeeded Chief Justice Draper in the
same court, and upon that eminent jurist
being transferred from the Queen s Bench
to the Court of Appeal, he was again
succeeded by Chief Justice Richards. In
1875, when the Supreme Court of Can
ada was created, he was chosen to fill
the important and responsible position
of Chief Justice of the court. In 1877 he
received the honour of knighthood "in
recognition of his long and distinguished
judicial career."
Owing to failing health Chief Justice
Richards retired from the bench in Janu
ary, 1879, and from that date took no
part in public affairs. The Chief Justice
married a Mtes Muirhead 1 , a granddaugh
ter of Dr. Muirhead of Niagara.
The old house where they resided is
still standing 1 , built after the war of
1812.
After his retirement Sir William Rich- j
ards continued to reside in Ottawa,
where he died on January 26th, 1889*
A writer in one of the pap?rs, speaking
of his decease, said : "He was, both as
a judge and as a man, a Canadian
of whom Canadians may be proud, and
will be remembered in history as one of
the giants of our time."
He was interred in the general ceme
tery, Brockville, where he had been
born, and where he had first entered
upon his honourable career.
Mrs. Richards died many years ago.
CHAPTER XVII.
WELLINGTON_S_T_REET EAST.
Botb Sides of a Commercial Centre, Which
Is Now In the Heart of the Dry-Goods and
Financial District.
The picture in this landmark of 1866
gives a fair idea of the both sides of
Wellington street east from Yonge down
to the Imperial Bank, on the north-wes.
corner of Change Alley. At the right,
where the Imperial Bank stands, was
the site of the post-office prior to its
removal to the west side of Toronto
street. The first building shown in the
picture on the right is No. 30, the estab
lishment of R, Jordan & Co., the grocers,
while No. 28 was the first office of the
Molsons Bank of Montreal in Toronto,
with Mr. R. G. Dallas as manager. No.
20 waa a small clapboard cottage*
where Mr. Campbell, a bootmaker, lived.
No. 24 is the Ontario Bank, then under
the management of Mr. Alexander Fisher.
The building Nos. 28-30 are the same
structures, but remodelled as in the late
sixties. The Ontario Bank is now, as
it was then, a handsome piece of archi
tecture. The building has been improved
by a large addition at the rear, on
Scott street. Across Scott street, at the
north- west corner of Wellington, was the
old building which many years ago wad
(prominent as a place of resort the
Cooper s Arms kept originally lay Mr.
John Murphy, and afterwards by Mrs.
Julia Murphy, his widow. From No. 13-
to No. 16 was devoted to offices. In this
building was the office of F. C. Capreol,
president of the Huron Ontario Ship
Canal Company, and David B. Pearson,
secretary of the Travellers Association.
This building was originally erected for
hotel purposes, and was known as the
Western Hotel, and occupied by the late
Russell Inglis, prior to his removal to
the Wellington Hotel, where the Bank
of Toronto now stands. Nos. 12-14 were
the wholesale warehouse of the late A.
M. Smith & William Keighley, and at
No. 8 W. H. Fraser had a commission
agency. Mr. Fraser was afterwards, and
up to the dajte of his death, Dominion
Appraiser at Ottawa. No. 6 was a
building directly east of the Express Com
pany s lane. It was occupied by Leith
& Kennedy, barristers, and others, and
at the corner was the Bank of British
North America, when Mr. Samuel Tay
lor was manager.
The principal change on this street is
the Cooper s Arms, now occupied by the
new building of the Western Fire Insur
ance Company. The Bank of British North
America has been re-built on the north
east corner of Yonge and Wellington
streets.
The little yellow cottage between the
Ontario and Molsons Banks, occupied by
Mr. Campbell, has given way to a large
white brick building, occupied by offices,
amongst them that of Messrs. Clarksoa
& Cross.
On th left of the picture, and on
the south side of Wellington street, t!it>
building, the pillars of which are seen
on the immediate left, is the Royal Can
adian Bank, Nos. 25-27. This bank start
ed business on Toronto street, directly
north of the original Rice Lewis build
ing. The vacant space directly west of
the Eoyal Canadian Bank on Wellington
street was owned in 1872 and subsequent
ly built upon by the late Senator John
Macdonald, as part of his large ware*
house. Nos. 21-23 comprised the weat-

era part of the present John Macdonald
& Go. s dry goods establishment, while
No. 19 was a two-storey brick building,
occupied in 1872 by F. J. Stewart as a
tea broker, and is now the site of the
Pacific buildings.
Crossing the street is the bnilding of
the Great North-western Telegraph Com
pany, a building which stood on the site
of a clapboard building, owned and oc
cupied by Mr. Graham, in fact, for years
it was known as Graham s Corner. The
building west, at No. 15, was erected by
the late Mr. John Fisken, *nd is occu
pied as offices (E. G. Dim & Co.) while the
row of buildings, Nos. 13, 9 and 11, Nos.
7 and 5, were occupied respectively by
Joseph Lawaon, commission merchant,
Lockart & Haldane, dry goods dealers,
Childs & Hamilton, boot and shoe manu
facturers, and II. A. Hoskin & Co., auction
eers. Hoskins & Clelaud were in this
building at one period. At No. 3 Robert
Davis & Co. had a wholesale groce.nv
after their removal from the fiouth-weat
corner of King and Bay streets, and the
corner building was occupied by the Royal
Insurance office, with Mr. F. H. Howard
as manager. Legal firms occupied the
upper floors, and White & Co., real lace
dealers, a building directly east of the
Royal offices.
There have been few changes on this
street since 1875. The change of the
Cooper s Arms has already been noted.
The other buildings are the re-modelled
buildings of 1850. At No. 8, the second
door east of the American Express lane
wa-5 the warehouse of Shaw & Turnbull,
who in 1850 had a wholesale dry goods
business the late John Shaw, afterwards
an official assignee, being the senidr
partner. The changes on the south side
have already been referred to.
In 1856 the Quebec Bank was at No. 15,
and John Macdooiald at No. 17, the same
buildings occupied in 1870 by R. Jordan
& Co., and the Molsons Bank. John Camp
bell, the boot maker, had the cottage to
the west of Molsons, and the Ontario
Bank corner was vacant. Crossing Scott
street, John Murphy had the Cooper s
Anna, and the large red brick building,
now offices, one door west of the Westerti
Assurance Company, was at one time -the
Western Hotel, kept by John Murphy, an
other, the Wellington Hotel, removed to
this house from the north-west corner of
Wellington and Church streets, Russell In-
glis being proprietor. Mr. Inglig, since
dead, while a boy, and in business in
Edinburgh, informed the writer that he
had often waited on and talked to Sir
Walter Scott. This hotel building was in
1856 occupied as offices. West of it was
the firm of Bowes (J, G.) & Hall, in dry
goods, William Ross & Co., grocers, and
Shaw, Turnbull & Co., in dry goods, 1
Bank of British North America having its
offices on the ground floor of the corker,
and general offices upstairs.
In 1856 Wellington street on the soutl
side and west oK Church had the Grand
Trunk Telegraph Company in the Coffin
block, which had Miller & Foulds and
others in business. There wore no ware
houses on the south side to Scott street,
the only brick building being the un
occupied rear part of the North American
Hotel on Front street, afterwards built
upon by John Macdoiiald. Luke Cutler,
at No. 20, on the southeast corner of
Scott street, had the Steamboat Hotel.
Across Scott street, where the G. N. W.
Telegraph offices stand was Graham j
frame building, a boarding house, and
later with offices, one being that of
Henry Hope, of The Old Countryman
newspaper. Taylor & Stevenson ^were
wholesale dry goods merchants, in a
brick row still standing to the west, and
Duncan MacDonuell, wholesale grocer,
were the onlv business establishments to
Yonge street, Bollo Campbell s printing
office being at the corner now occupied
by the Royal Insurance Company.
CHAPTER XVIII.
FRONT, WELLINGTON AND CHURCH
A Corner That Reminds Old Residents of
the Ways of ^Teller s Stage Line The Cof
fin Block.
The passenger traffic down Church
street to Cooper s wharf as early as 1798
to 1805 was a small percentage of what
it was in 1845-55, when Maitland s wharf
which succeeded the Cooper s of pioneer
days, was the landing place of freight
| steamers and schooners and was the city
i Bide of the Island traffic, for it was from
I Maitland s wharf that the old horse boat
I and the first steam ferry ran to Privat e
Hotel, which stood where now the eastern
channel runs through the Toronto Is
land. William Cooper was the first Free
mason initiated iu York, and his life and
business have been dealt with in another
landmark. Robert Maitland, after his
wharfage days, went to Port Arthur,
where he died a year or two ago.
The picture gives on the right the
north-west corner of Front and Church 1
streets, at W. R. Griffiths & Company *!

Wellington and Church Streets, where the
Bank of Toronto stands, while the centre

No. 62 was occupied by W. & E. Grif
fiths & Co., as wholesale grocers. This
building was erected about 1845. On
the Church street side was an entrance
to the Ontario Chambers or offices, which
occupied the upper floors. lu 1849-63
this was the Royal Exchange Restaur
ant, kept by a coloured man named
Snow, and a large hall on the first floor
was used for political meetings. The
buildings to the east are known as Man
ning s Block, being the property of Alex
ander Manning.
The Bank of Toronto is on the site of
the Wellington Hotel, a once popular
hostelry of York and Toronto. It was
the Ontario House in 1822, with Win.
Campbell as proprietor, and later became
the Wellington Hotel. Oue door west, in
a roughcast house, was the original resi
dence of Win. Cooper, of Cooper s Wharf.
On a vacant ejpa.ce of nearly two hun
dred feet west of Cooper s was ground
on which George Bernard s circus used
to pitch its tent in the forties. This was
before 1845. Mrs. Bernard was quite an
equestrienne, and, consequently, a draw
ing card. The leading members of the
company were Cadwaller Stone, Rock
well, Gossan, who played the clown,
Frank Wilmot and Harry Bacheldon, and
a boy named Frank, an apprentice in
the athlete business. Frank was " a
clever youth," writes the late Alexander
Jacques, in a letter dated 1889, " a
good horseman and tumbler. In after
years he was the champion somersault
thrower of the world." " Frank," writes
Mr. Jacques, " was a great favourite
with Mrs. Washburn, the wife of Simon
Washburn, a prominent barrister of York
about 1825-39. Bernard made York his
headquarters in the winter on this lot
on the west side of which was a lane
known as Kelly s lane, and which, prior
to 1840, formed part of Henrietta street,
which ran from Wellington street north
through Market street (Colborne) to the
south side of King, endi ug at the
street line in front of Lawson s old
stand. In the spring-time Bernard put
his tente and waggons in order and
moved on an annual tour through
Upper Canada, which lasted for at least
five months.
About 1855-57 a row of white brick
buildings was erected on this site, in
the east one of which was at that time
the restaurant of Mark Ackerman, known
for its handsome fittings and tempting
viands, now the business house of S.
Trees & Co. la 1872 No. 56 was occu
pied by S. W. Farrell, commission mer-
chant; Ti. R. Wood, insurance agent, and
Drysdale & Co., commission merchants.
At No. 42 was James Young, produce
dealer, and E Bendelari & Co., import
ers, while Nos. 88 and 40 were occupied
by John Morrison afterwards of the Brit
ish America Insurance the wholesale
grocer, now in banking at Victoria street.
The east corner of Change Alley was No.
36, the warehouse of the late W. War
wick, the wholesale stationer.
The centre of the picture shows the
Coffin Block, in which were the original
offices of the Dominion Telegraph Com
pany. The lower portion, at the angle
of the streets, was occupied as a coal
office. The %pper part of this building
on Front street has been given in an
other landmark. On the Wellington
street side, Mr. George Laidlaw, so long
known in connection with the narrow
gauge railways, had an office for years.
During the days of the rebellion in the
basement of this building was the re
staurant of a genial old Scotchman
named Bannerman, who did good service
in 1837 in feeding the volunteers, who
had assembled HI the City Hall to repel
tho invaders in December of that year.
This spot was also prominent in the
days of stage coaches, for in this build
ing was the office of Weller a stage,
which ran east between Toronto and
Kingston. On the left-hand of the pic
ture, just near the telegraph pole, was
the stable, used by Weller for his horses.
In later days the wide part of the street,
east of Church and between that and
the market, was used as a haymarket.
To go back to an earlier period in this
landmark, we find that in 1856, in the
building on Front street, one door west
of the Coffin block, at No. 20, Mr. Alex
ander M. Morris and Robert Maitland,
the wharfinger, had offices, while at No.
21, which was the beginning of the well-
known block, George H. Wyatt, the
freight agent ; H. Boydell, the lumber
measurer, and James R. Bradbury, the
land agent, had offices.
In No. 21, for it was a building that
^tended down to the junction of Wel
lington with Front, and also through
:rom Front to Wellington, were offices
Of leading firms. Hooker, Pridham & Co.,
of the Montreal Through Line, and Edwin
Pridham, also in the freight business, had
>ffices. In an upper floor of the same
juildiug was the Montreal Telegraph of-
ice, with Benjamin Toye as manager,
and J. Dunn, C. Bradford and J. Hender
son as operators. James Baine was on
;be same floor as a commission agent,
and W. J. MacDonell & Co. were forward
ers. Mr. MacDonell was French consul
it Toronto up to the time of his death.
Miller & Foulde were wholesale dry goods
men, and Peter Morgan, whose residence

Strickland, the architect, of Toronto. Mr.
Charles Morgan, the eldest son, is con

Montreal. Mrs. (Peter Morgan resides in
[Peterboro . Andrew Drummond, the
broker, had also an office in this build
ing. T. C. Orchard was a commission
merchant in the next room, and James
Cotton, the contractor, afterwards owner
of the Ottawa Times, had his business
office in the Coffin block. Holcomb
and Henderson, two names noted in
the freight trade, were in the east
end of the block, and the International
Telegraph Company had its offices here,
with J. D. Purkiss as manager. This
company was afterwards the Dominion
Telegraph Company. J. D. Thatcher and
E. L. Herriugton were the operators, a|nd
the small office at the east end of this
peculiarly shaped building was the gen
eral stage office of William Weller.
In 3856 the north-west cortner of Wel
lington and Church streets, where the
Bank of Toronto stands, had the build
ing formerly the Wellington Hotel. This
building, a wooden one, had been con
verted into tenemafuts, A coffee house
was at the corner, and Henry King, a
bricklayer, James Elwood, a steward on
the lake steamers, Joseph Charbott, a
tailor, and Mrs. Bell, mother of Mrs.
Russell Inglis, resided in the building,
which years before had been under the
management of Mr. Inglis, before his
connection with the Customs department.
The vacant space, which earlier was a
circus ground, was not built up in 1856,
and Mark Ackerman had his restaurant
in the east building of the white brick
row that stands there to-day. Thomas
Hutchinson, a prominent wholesale dry-
goods house, occupied the western part
of the row, to the east side of what
is now Change alley, but was then Berczy
Btreet. This name was given in honour
of the postmaster, who had his office and
residence to the west of the street, at
an earlier period. The Toronto Royal
Exchange, with James Brown, jr., as
secretary, was the next building west
of Bercz3 r street. It is now the east half
of the Imperial Bank.
On the north-east corner of Front and
Church streets, where W. E. Griffiths &
Co. was in 1866, was occupied in 1856 by
the restaurant of Mr. Swoud, and the
barber shop of Thos. F. Gary, the polite
Tonge street tonsorial artiet of later
days. Horace L. Forbes, afterwards of
i Forbes & Loweaborough and the People s
I Building Society, with Charles Stotes-
bury, as secretary, and E. C. Mainers
were in this building. James Moodie had
a saloon next door east, and Geo. Smith), a
bowling saloon or alley in the adjacent
building.
The ground east of this was vacant.
It is now occupied "by Manning s block.
In the row of brick buildings Mrs. Aim
Diamond had the- Telegraph hotel build
ing, with numerous tenants, and at No.
38, Howland & Fitch were grocers, Good-
erham, Howland & Co. were produce mer
chants, and A. M. Smith had a large
crockery establishment. The corner had
a veteran publican, William Steers, who
kept the British Coffee House, named af
ter the original house on the south-east
Corner of King and York streets.
CHAPTER XIX.
A BIT OF FRONT STREET.
The .\ortU-west ami South-east Corners of
Front and Wellington Streets Three or
Four Well-Known Marts of Trade.
Looking at the picture which belongs
to this landmark one can hardly realize
that as late as 1870 the ground on the
south side of Front street, beyond the
Custom House, was vacant, and that, a-
one stood at the corner of Tonge and
Front streets looking west, the most
prominent building in view, was the im
mense structure of Jacques & Hay, a
few hundred feat south of the line of
Front street, with lumber closely piled
on the site of what is now the hand
some row of mercantile buildings, which
add so much to the fine appearance of
the street. In this picture, taken in 1872,
the tree on the right is at the corner cf
the Bank of Montreal, and was in the
lawn which was an original part of the
surroundings of the bank prior to the
erection of the present building. fFhe
structure to the west, Nos. 4-12, is the
handsome warehouse formerly of A. R.
McMaster & Bros., the wholesale dry
goods dealers, now the establishment of
J. S. McMaster & Co., a building which
can claim credit as being one of the
handsomest structures upon tte street,
or, for that matter, in the city. At No. 14
Thomas Lailey manufactured clothing,
and at No. 16 Robert McPhail had a
wholesale stationery establishment. Mr.
McPhail was originally in the retail lire
011 King street at the south-east corner
of Leader Lane in a red brick building,
which was erected about seventy years
ago and is still standing. At Nos. 18-20
west on Front street was Thompson &
Burns wholesale crockery establishment,
and just beyond it. No. 24, was the

residence of Judge Jones, which, in 1872,
w,as used as a Custom House after the
destruction of the Custom Hou:e by fire.
Nos. 32-4 w.ere tbe wholesale bookselling
establishment of James Campbell & Son,
and at Nos. 36-40 Sessions, Cooper &
Smith manufactured boots and shoes. In
the old Baldwin house at the corner of
Bay and Front streets, at tl.e north
west corner, were the offices of the To
ronto and Nipissiiig and the Toronto,
Grey & Bruce railways. This houce, in
1864, was used as a military hospital,
and prior to that date as Ellah s Hotel.
There were piles of lumber on the corner
of Front and Bay and also the factory
of Jacques & Hay. Before the days of
the Esplanade tl.e shore line between Bay
and Tonga streets was about 100 feet
south of the pre. ent street line of Front
street. The picture gives but one ware
house on the south-east corner, that of
George Mich. e & Co., the wholesale
grocers. This building was erected on
the northern part of the yard of the
Freeland Soap factory, a picture of which
is given in another landmark. Prior to
1860 there were no buildings on this side
of the street, for one or two small wooden
erect:o:is could scarcely b3 termed build
ings In the seme now used. From about
1836 to 1848 a large tr. e stood opposite
the American Hotel, and a little east of
Smith & Keighley a present warehouse.
It was a well known mark on the street,
and was cut down in 1853-4 at the time
the Esplanade was being built. Mr. George
Michie commented business originally in
the early forties on King street, on the
site of the present Michie & Co. s store.
He then went into the wholesale business
as Ogilvy & Co., and n moved to Yonfc,e
street in tie row of buildings that were
erecteil iu. the fifties south of the old
establishment of M. & L. Samuel, Ben
jamin & Co. Then he removed to Front
street as George Michie & Co., and even
tually the firm went out of business.
In 1856 the Bank of Montreal was at
the north-west corner of Tonge and Front
streets, while brick buildings to the west,
for the McMaster building had not been
erected, were occupied by John Watson,
wine merchant; Charles Roberte-on, lum
ber dealer, and the Grand Trunk Rail
way offices were in the brick residence
formerly the house of Judge Jones. Mrs.
Muttlebery and TV A. Stayner lived in
houses west of the Jones dwelling, and
tha Baldwin House, on the north-east
corner of Bay, was Ellah s Hotel, kept
by Mrs. Mary Ellah. This was the best
known private hotel in Toronto in early
days. Mrs. Ellah prior to 1856 had a
similar establishment on King street,
where the red brick row that was origin-
! ally Macdonald s Hotel, and afterwards,
1 when rebuilt (1855) Avas Remain Build-
ings.
In 1856, on the south-east corner of
j Yonge and Front streets, where the
Michie building, now the Canada Rubber
j Company s warehouse, stands, was Free-
i land & Taylor, candle manufacturers,
while east of this was the coal yard, of
H. G. R. Fripp. The ground east to some
distance past Scott street had only
wooden buildings.
CHAPTER XX.
YONGE STREET NORTH OF KING.
A Corner Which Has Seen Many Changes
The Picture In This Landmark was Taken
In 1879.
The south-east corner of King and
Yonge streets and the brick building
which stood thereon was the original
dry goods establishment of Betley &
Brown, the late Matthew Betley being
the senior partner. It was afterwards
established under the name of Betley &
Kay, and later on, after the dissolution
of partnership of the late John Kay, in
retail dry goods, with the addition of
a carpet branch, which now forms such
an extensive business on the north side
of King street west, near Bay. The
building on the corner of King and Yonge
made way for that now on the site occu
pied by the Canada Pacific railway of
fices. To the south of this building and
across the lane were a row of buildings
known as the Commercial buildings,
which, when erected, were considered
substantial and handsome. In early days
Lovell & Gibson, who had an office in
the fifties across the way in Capreol s
auction room building, occupied the store
directly across the lane as a printing
establishment, and in 1872 it was the
printing office of the Express, an even
ing newspaper, published for a few
months by J. B. Cook. Phillip Brown &
Co., bankers, subsequently occupied this
building, which was No. 67, and also A.
Lovell & Co., printers. No. 65 was the
warehouse of Andrew Henderson, the
auctioneer, who commenced business
across the way about 1850, and Nos.
63-5 were the wholesale house of Bun-
tin Bro. & Co., afterwards Buntin, Reid
& Co., now the site of the Traders Bank.
In 1874-5 the Liberal newspaper, under
John Cameron, was at No. 67, and when
that journal passed out of existence Mr.
Josiah Bray occupied No. 67 as an ex-
-change office, and in 1876 J. Ross Rob
ertson rented this building and commen
ced the issue of The Evening Telegram.
The building on the south-east side ol
Yonge and Colborne streets, built for
LAM DM ARKS OF TORONTO.
51
Ross Mitchell and occupied afterwards
by the Bank of Commerce, has already
been noted in another landmark.
On the west side of Yoiige street, at
the south-west corner in 1872 was the
retail dry goods establishment of W. H.
rister, and John Turner, photographer,
Mr. Turner was afterwards proprietor of
the Ferry line, and his wife is now lihe
lessee of the Turner Baths on Toronto
Island. Richards (Hon. Stephen) & Smith
<J. F.), barristers, were also in the up-
Dow & Co., and upstairs the office of
T. D. Ledyard, the barrister. There were
also in this building the offices of F. W.
Munro, barrister, now of Chicago, Mc-
Dafngall & Bros., lumber dealers, Fergus
on & Ferguson, barristers, R. W. Parkiii-
con, barrister, S. J, Vankoughnet, ba,r-
per portion of this building. At No. 72
TItird, Leigh & Co. were China and glass
merchants, whose factory was in the
rear. At No. 79 John Robertson, Son A
Co. had a dry goods establishment in the
building now St. Charles restaurant. The
buildings from the corner of Kinff down
52
LANDMARKS OP TORONTO.
to No. 70 were erected between 1835-3,7,
the first occupant of the new row being
John Robertson. In 1837 Mr. Robertson
was connected with a business establish
ment in the east end of the city near
Church street, and when he entered the
wholesale trade on Yonge street his
friends thought he was going too far
west, the more especially as cases of
goods had to be hauled up three stone
steps while being taken into the ware
house. Nos. 68-4, the white brick build
ings at the norths-west corner of Me-
linda and Tonge streets, were occupied
by T. May & Co., and Gillespie & Co.,
the wholesale furriers.
The principal changes on these two
blocks are the erection of the Dominion
Bank, on the corner of King and Yonge
streets, the late Henry Irving being the
architect, and the Webb building at the
north-west corner, and the Globe build
ing on the south-west corner of Yonge
and Melinda streets, on the site of the
original Ross Mitchell warehouse of forty
years ago. On the east side of the street
part of the commercial business has
given way to the building occupied by
the Traders Bank, erected by S. F. Mc-
Kinnon, while the north part of this row
has been re-modelled and reconstructed
the upper portions being used for offices.
In 1856 the buildings on the west side
of Yoiige street, south of King, were
occupied by W. H. Dow at the corner of
King street, while No. 43, south, on
Yonge street, was unoccupied, and An
drew Henderson, the auctioneer, was at
No. 41 ; John Robertson, in dry goods,
at No. 39, and Lovell & Gibson, printers,
at No. 35.
On the east side of Yonge street, from
the corner of King, Betley & Kay"
establishment extended along the east
side of Yonge strest to a lane, and in
the rear portion of Betley s building
Oliver Mowat (Sir Oliver) had hie offices
as a barrister, and John Helliwell was
in the same profession on the same floor.
The three buildings south of Betleyl s
lune were the "Commercial Buildings."
Lovell & Gibson and The Evening Tele
gram (1870) were in this building. At
No. 1 of this row Henderson Bros, were
in wholesale dry goods. Alexander Hen
derson & John Henderson composed the
firm. Alexander Heud?rsou afterwards
retired and was an alderman of Toronto,
and John was the senior partner of the
firm of Henderson & Bostwick, a firm
which has since gone out of business. In
No. 2 of the row R. Campbell & Co., a
Montreal firm, had a carpet warehouse,
and at No. 4 J. C. Mayer was a furrier.
This building was afterwards occupied
by Buntin, Raid & Co., and is now the
site of the Traders Bank. Andrew Hen-
dersou, auctioneer, who years before had
been on tbe opposite side of the street,
occupied Campbell s building in J876-78.
The buildings south from Colborne street,
commencing with that of Ross, Mitchell
& Co., have ben given in another land
mark.
CHAPTER XXI.
TH E SOUTH END OF YONGE ST.
The First Blocks on the Cast and West Side.*
of the Great Thoroughfare That Runs
Thirty Miles Into York County.
Seventy years ago Yonge street at its
south end was not so important a busi
ness centre, even in Little York, as it
was in the late fifties, in the greater
Q\>roirto, or as, of course, it is to-day,
in the commercial metropolis of Ontario.
From 1800 to 1830 the business centre
of the two was east of Church street,
and the marine traffic was for the most
part at the foot of the streets east
of and including Church street; indeed, it
was not until 1845, when Yonge street
wharf, and Brown s wharf, at the foot
of Scott street, commanded the lake tra
vel, and offered a landing place for the
steamers that plied up and down the
lake.
Youge street was central enough iu
1838 for the post-office, built on the
site of the present Bank of Montreal.
The post-office was a building that, if
not architecturally beautiful, drew daily
to its doors the small mercantile com
munity that formed then the nucleus
of the commercial interests that flourish
to-day.
The right of the picture, which was
drawn in 1872, shows just the north-east
corner of the American Hotel, a hostelry
that had the call for travelling long
before and even during the early days
of the Queen s and Rossin Houses. Mr.
David Walker was the proprietor of the
American in 1872.
The first door north, No. 35, was the
warehouse of H. Shorey & Co., clothiers,
a Montreal firm doing business in To
ronto, while No. 37, a tall building, im
proved by the re-fronting of an old
three storey building, was occupied by
Joseph Wey & Co., hatters. At No. 39
G. W. Dunn was in the, hoop skirt l^ade,
when that useful article" of female under-
gear was popular, and Hodgson & Boyd,
at No. 41, sold wholesale fancy and gen
eral dry goods. R. H. Gray & Co., were
at No. 43, in gents furnishings, and at
No. 45 Wm. Myles & Son sold coal, giving
a full 2,000 pounds to the ton, while
Bravley (James) & Hay were commission

merchants, and at the corner F. H. Hew-
ard presided over the business of the j
Royal Insurance Company, in a building
erected for that purpose. Crossing Wei- .
liugton street and keeping still on the :
east side wae the cut stone building of
the Bank of British North America, and
in No. 51, Childs & Co. manufacture* ;
boots and shoes, and at No. 53 Alfred
Dredge did business in the wholesale j
paper line, with the addition of a bijud- i
ery and an envelope factory. Mr. Dredge j
removed from Toronto some years ago
and is now in prosperous business in New
York. At No. 55, J. Y. Vickers had
his Northern railway express office, and \
upstairs as A. W. Russell, the watchman,
had a branch of his brother s (Liverpool)
business in that line. Morphy, Morphy ^
Winchester were barristers upstairs. The
Messrs. Morphy are dead, but Mr. Win
chester hears motions and gives just and
prompt rulings as Master in Osgoode
Hall. Nos. 55-57 also had the American
Express office, and as manager John D.
Irwin, who has just passed away, while
George Virtue, the agent of a London
publishing house, was also upstairs at No. I
57. At the south-east corner of Yonge j
and Colborne streets the building was
originally put up by Boss Mitchell & Co.,
was in 1872 occupied by the Bank of
Commerce.
On the west erXe of Yonge street, and
at its north-west corner, was the Bank
of Montreal, in the building which pre
ceded the present palatial structure. At
No. 32 Bailey & Bunting were grocers, j
Mr. Bunting was afterwards of the
Mail newspaper, and died in Janu
ary. 1896. At No. 34, Bryce, McMurrich
<fc Co. had a wholesale dry goods house.)
They afterwards removed to Bay street,
near Wellington, and finally retired from
business. At No. 36 Moffatt Bros, were
in wholesale dry goods as successors of ;
the old firm of Moffatt, Murray & Co.,
and at No. 38 Thomas Walls & Co. weru ;
in the same line. At No. 40 Peach & i
Goulding had a large wholesale trade J
in millinery. The Messrs. Goulding are j
in business to-day in the same trade
on Bay street. Stalker & Ross, two care
ful Scotchmen, were in dry goods at No.
42, and David Arnott also at No. 44.
J. G. Joseph & Co. were jewellers at
the south-west corner of Yonge and Wel
lington. The father of this firm was
in business in the thirties on King street
*a.st of the Leader Lane. Old residents
will remember his pleasant face and his
gold spectacles. The firm has since gone
out of business. On the north-west cor
ner of Yonge and Wellington streets, at
Nos. 48-50, was the most enterprising
of Toronto s wholesale jewellers of his
day, Mr. Robert Wilkes, a gentleman
who e uu o.-tuuat? cleat i by drowning wad
regretted by so maaiy. At No. 52 S. H.
& J. Moss, a Montreal firm, had a To
ronto branch in clothing. At No. 54 S.
D&visou was in jewellery, and at No.
56 McLean (Daniel) & Craig were in
wholesale leather. At No. 58 M. & L.
Samuel were in metal and hardware. The
firm is now M. L. Samuel & Benjamin,
on Front street. The building, No. 58, on
Yonge street, was in 1844 No. 29, and
in 1846 this building was occupied by
the late George Brown as the Globe of
fice. It is about thirty feet south ol
the present office of the Globe, at the
eouth-west corner of Youge and Meliuda
streets. In 1872 N. & F. Roouey were
at No. 60, the old store of Messrs. Per-
rin, and at No. 62 were Hughes Bros.,
in a building that in the forties was
occupied by Ross, Mitchell & Co., prior
to their removal to the opposite south
east corner. Crossing Melinda street, at
No. 64 J. Gillespie A Co. were in hats
and furs, and Thomas May & Co., of Mont
real, in wholesale fancy goods. This
warehouse occupied the site of Capreol a
auction room, 1836. At Nos. 68-70 George
Brown had the St. Charles restaurajnt*
in the warehouse formerly occupied ae
No. 39 by the late John Robertson, and
at No. 72 Bacon & Phillips were whole
sale china merchants, and W. H. Dow
& Co. were at the corner where th*
Dominion Bank building now stands.
Going back forty years in the history
of this landmark may not be uninterest-
ing to old residenters, who can recall
faces and localities that have alway*
been alive in its different lines.
In 1856 N. F. Pearson was proprietor
of the American Hotel, and at No. 6, one
door north, Elizabeth Fawcett had a
smaller house, called the " Toronto
Hotel." At No. 8 James Girvin was a
baker and confectioner, succeeding Mr.
Maitland, a pioneer in the same trade.
Thomas Lailey occupied No. 10 as a
wholesale clothing house. He afterwards
moved to Front street west, near Yonge,
and at No. 12 W. F. Langlois was in the
wholesale wine trade. E. R. Paul & Co.
were wholesale shoemsn at No. 14, and
at No. 16, one door south of the present
Royal Insurance corner, Duncan Mac-
Donell was a wholesale grocer. In
earlier years Mr. MacDonell was a part
ner of Mr. J. F. Smith, as grocers, on
King street, east of Leader lane. At th
south-east corner, where the Royal
office now stands, was No. 18, with
Rollo Campbell, as Government printer,
as occupant. Here Wellington street
intersected with the Bank of British
North America in its present location.

At No. 24, on the site of the Commercial
Travellers building of to-day, C. J.
Houghton was ail auctioneer, and at the
corner of Colborue, Ross, Mitchell & Co.
were in wholesale dry goods.
In 1856, on the north-west corner of
Yonge and Front streets, was the Bank
of Montreal, with Wm. Wilson, as cash
ier, and at No:. 3 Wm. McMaster (after
wards Senator,! in dry goods, with Bryce,
McMurrich & Co. at No. 5, and Moffat,
Murray & Co. at No. 7, and Gilmor &
Coulson at No. 9, all in the same line
of trade. No. 9 had also George A.
Pyper, a wholesale grocer, a citizen who
lost his life through an accident while
bathing at the Island, and at No. 11
Isaac C. Gilmor was a wholesale dry
goods merchant. The south-west corner
of Yonge and Wellington was the
public house known as the Argyle
Hotel, kept by a Scotchman a
prominent character in Toronto, named
McNab. He claimed descent from the
chief of the clan, and was a popular"
man with his patrons. The City Bank of
Montreal was on the north-west corner,
where Robert Wilkes was in later years.
Mr. Hugh Woodside was cashier. He af
terwards organized the Royal Canadian
Bank. At No. 24 Charles B. Jarvis was
a merchant. In a fire that took place
in this block late in the fifties Mr. Jarvis,
while trying to save his property, injured
his eyes, and ever afterwards had to
wear smoked glasses. His daughter, an
accomplished singer, after studying at
Milan, died while comparatively a young
woman. At No. 26 Score & Hall were
wholesale clothiers, J. F. Score and
William Hall being the partners. Mr.
Score is the father of the Messrs. Score on
King street west, and resides in this city.
Mr. Hall subsequently was of the firm
of Bowes (J. G.) and Hall, on the south
east corner of King and Church streets.
At No. 27 A. Ogilvie & Co. were grocers.
George Michie & Co. succeeded this firm.
At No. 29, the building of M. L. Samuel
& Benjamin in the later years, was oc
cupied by P. J. O Neil, a popular whole
sale dry goods man, and at No. 31 W. L.
[Perrin & Co. were in the same business.
The O Neil building was, in the forties,
No. 29, and the office of the Globe news
paper. The corner of Melinda street,
where the Globe office stands, R. D. Mc-
[Pherson & Co. s, was a wholesale grocery
establishment. They afterwards were in
retail in the Roesiu block, at the corner
of King and York streets. The McPher-
son building was, prior to 1855, occupied
by Ross, Mitchell & Co. At No. 35,
where the Webb building stands, was the
old office of F. C. Capreol, its south cud
being occupied in 1855 by Joseph Henry,
the accountant, and Lovell & Gibson,
printers. In the south end of this build
ing a paper known as the Canadian Punch
had its offices about 1850. John Robert
son, in wholesale dry goods, was at No.
35, and Andrew Henderson, the auction
eer, at No. 37, the north buildings being
unoccupied in 1856, and W. H. Dow & Co.
being on the corner of King.
CHAPTER XXII.
TORONTO ST. A_ND J<ING ST. EAST-
A Central Business Section One Which Ha
Had Few Changes In Its Buildings A. Busy
Spot for Traffic for the Last Fifty Years.
The picture in this landmark gives a
section of both sides of King street, from
Toronto street east and west to King
street, and the south side of King street
from the old Leader office west to R.
Walker & Sons , with othe-r buildings fur
ther west in the distance.
The le t of the picture shows the Leader
office in 1870, under the proprietorship
of James Beatty, the principal part of
the building being occupied as offices,
; while the editorial and printing depart
ments were in a large brick building in
: the rear, a building which has since been
converted into shops facing on Leader
! lane. At No. 61 was the St. Nicholas
Restaurant, occupying the building which
had originally been erected by the late
I Charles Robertson, jr., as a retail dry
I goods establishment. Mr. Robertson was
the youngest brother of John Robertson,
wholesale merchant, on Yonge street. The
building in its day was the most attrac
tive on King street, and was about the
first new building from 1840-51 in the
block from Leader lane to Yonge street
on the south side of King. At No. 59 John
Catto & Co. had a dry goods establish
ment. Since that time both Nos. 61 and
59 have been torn down, and the large
building now occupied by John Catto &
Co., in the same line of business, has been
erected. King street west, No. 57, was
the auction room of F. W. Coate & Co., a
firm which succeeded Wakefield & Coate,
auctioneers, one of the pioneer auctioneers
of Toronto being the late Wm. Wakefield.
At No. 55, Coleinan & Co. were battens.
Mr. Colemaii was a bright, clever me
chanic, an Englishman, who knew all that
man could know about the making of hate
1 and cups. " Hats That are Hats," wa
! a familiar sign over his doorway. Mr.
George W. Warner subsequently succeed
ed to the business. At No. 53 Robert
Beatty & Co. were money brokers, and
W. J. Armstrong, the photographer, was
upstairs. At 51 1-2 George Michael, tbe
optician, had an establishment, and at

high-class trade. Mr. S. H. Janes being
the senior partner, with Mr. James
Brayley and Mr. Henry Newcombe. The
firm was afterwards Janes & Newcombe.
At No. 49 in 1873 Merrick Bros, were iu
the dry goods business, but later this
building was occupied by Glover Harrison
as China Hall. At No. 43 James E.
Ellis & Co. had their jewellery establish
ment, and iu a small shop between No.
43 and 39, known as No. 4], James Spoon-
rr was popular with those who wanted
pipes aud tobaccos. At No. 34 Notman &
Fraser, photographers, had their place of
business, in a building, which, prior to
1850 had been occupied by Charles Rob
ertson as a retail dry goods house prior
to his removal farther east. Nos. 33-5-7
are still the large house of Robert Walker
.t Soiiis. dry goods merchants, while No.
31 had McDonnough & James in the car
pet line, and No. 25 had William Arthurs
k Co., retail dry goods. At Nos. 21-23
were W. A. Murray & Co., in dry goods,
as successors to Wylie & Murray,
aud at Nos. 17-19 " Copp, Clark &
Co., the publishers, had a large re
tail bookstore. In this building years
before was published the British Colonist,
under Hugh Scobie, and the shop was
occupied by Scobie & Balfour, who were
also publishers and booksellers. No. 15
was and is the music store of A. & S.
Nordheimer, and No. 13 had William
Bryden in drugs, as successor to Francis
Richardson, who has retired from busi
ness and is still hale aud hearty. In No.
11 W. L. Wilkinson & Co. were jewellers,
and at No. 9 Charles Potter was an
optician. Mr. Wilkinson is now with
Ambrose Kent & Sons, 156 Yonge street,
old 103. At No. 7 Charles and W. Walker
were merchant tailors, and Lash & Co.
were jewellers in the London and Paris
House, afterwards rebuilt aud occupied
by Willing & Wiliiamsou as a bookstore,
and now Mr. Cousineau s establishment,
known as " The Bon Marche," while
Henry Graham & Co., the carpet men,
were at No. 3, the present shop of Ren
frew & Co., and John Kay was at the
corner.
On the right hand side, at the north
east corner of Toronto and King streets,
at Nos. 52-4, was the large shop of Rice
Lewis & Co., to-da.y probably one of the
best known firms in Canada. The build
ing directly to the east was part and
parcel of the same shop, and was known
as the Birmingham House. The buildings
east of this have been given in another
landmark.
Directly to the north of this building
and 78 feet from the street line of
King street is the south wall of the
jail, of 1834-41. About forty feet from
King and thirty feet east of Toronto
street, on the site of the Rice Lewis
building, was erected the scaffold on
which the patriots Lount and Matthews
suffered in 1838. The south front re
ferred to was exposed four years ago,
when the north-east corner buildings of
Rice Lewis & Sou were being torn down
and re-built. A portion of the front, in
cluding the window through which the
patriots walked to death, may be seen
from the small yard in rear of Walton s
barber shop, on the north side of King
street.
On the north-west corner of Toronto
and King streets was the banking house
of H. J. Morse & Co., who were financial
brokers, while also in this building Alex
ander Davidson was manager of the
Hartford Fire Insurance Company. The
British American Commercial College, the
pioneer college in that Hue, was started
in this building, some years before, under
Mr. Bates. The building west on King
street was the shop of Mr. James Bain,
the bookseller, No. 46, and at No. 44
Edwin Harris & Co., were oil men and
chemists. At No. 42 the Stock Exchange
had its first offices, and at No. 40, the
building now occupied by W. H. Elliott,
the Dominion Bank was started. At No.
38 Messrs. Pellatt & Osier were stock
brokers, and the buildings between No.
36 and No. 32 were occupied by men in
different lines of business. This was
originally the John Harrington hardwa.re
building. At No. 30 were the financial
brokers, Forbes & Lovvusborough. This
building was originally known as the
Leslie Bros, building, and was erected
before 1836. Alongside of No. 30 was a
short laue, known as the Globe lane, and
at Nos. 26-28 was the Globe Printing
establishment, erected in the early six
ties. The Globe removed from the Dallas
building on King street west, near Jor
dan, to this new building. No. 24 was
the retail hardware shop of P. Patter
son & Son. Rice Lewis & Co. s present
establishment occupies the site of the
Leslie building. Victoria street was
opened to King street over the site of
the Globe building and its lane, and the
Central Canada Loan now occupies the
site of P. Patterson & Son s, No. 24.
The rest of the buildings up to Yon^o
street have been given iu another laud-
mark of an earlier period.
Looking at the north side ol the street,
Rice Lewis & Co. s building has been torn
down and re-constructed, the lower por
tion beino: occupied as offices and the
uppt r portion as chambers for barristers
and agents.

west to Yonge, with the exception of
two or three, are about the same that
they were years ago.
On the south side the principal changes
are the Catto building, the Golden Lion,
and the buildings occupied by Renfrew
& Co. and the C. P. R. All along King
street east, from Church to Yoiige
streets, while a few of the buildings have
been torn down and re-built, nearly two-
thirds have been re-modelled in their ex
terior, and a email number are as they
were fifty years ago.
CHAPTER XX11I.
CORNER OF KING AND BAY STS.
A Set- foil
Street West Wkleli Has
Around it Some Interesting Spots Thirty
Years Ago In a Xow Btisy ThoroughJiire.
Bay street up to the sixties was more
of a residence street than any of the
short streets of Toronto, running north
from the Bay to Queen. The rows of
brick buildings on both sides of the street
which formerly were the homes of mer
chants and business men, have in many
cases been altered to suit business re
quirements, while not a few have been
torn down to make room for modern
structures. Yet Bay street was always a
prominent thoroughfare from King, and
mechanics and vessel men coming from
King street east and west and north to
Queen street, used it freely, for Front
street, near Bay, before the days of the
Esplanade, and in the palmy days of the
Jacques & Hay factory was a fairly busy
spot.
The scene in the picture gives the four
corners of King and Bay streets in 1866,
although, as far as buildings are con
cerned, with the exception of the Caw-
thra residence ou the north-east corner,
all the other houses shown east and west,
on both sides of the street, were up from
1840.
At the bouth-east corner was the three-
storey brick building of Jacques & Hay,
occupying about forty feet of the King
street front, and running down a hun
dred and fifty feet on Bay street. The
King street front was the wareroom and
the Bay street extension was for pack
ing and shipping. The factory was at
the foot of Bay street, west of the west
line of the present street, and directly
north of the line of Esplanade street.
Years later the firm moved its ware rooms
east to the south-west corner of King and
Jordan streets, on the Bank of Com
merce site, and the buildings on the cor
ner of King and Bay streets were torn
down by the Hon. John Ross estate, . aid
a large white bri:-k building erected, now
occupied by J. M. Treble, the rear on
Bay street being also rebuilt with two
shops, now occupied by J. Maloney & Son
and J. G. Ramsay & Co.
At No. 51, the first shop east of Jacques
& Hay on King street, was the gentle
men s furnishing store of D. S. & B.
I Adams. The firm was really the first
! exclusively in this line of business in To
ronto. The buildings from that of Adams
to that of Hooper & Co. were two-storey
frame buildings. In a small, narrow, ten-
foot shop R. S. Thompson, at No. 49 1-2,
had a news store. The space occupied
by this building was originally a lane
leading under the second storey of No.
49, but it was built up and converted
into a shop. Mr. Thompson now resides in
the North-west Territories.
At No. 49 James (Park, now of the St.
Lawrence market, had a provision store,
and at No. 47 Philip Jacobi dealt in
leather, while the next building, a brick
one, was No. 43, occupied by Hooper &
Co. This house, however, is not in the
! photograph from which this landmark is
| given.
Ten years before this date (1866)
Jacques & Hay were at the corner of
Bay, while Thomas iPotter, a paper-
| hanger, and Mrs. IPotter, a shirtmaker,
j were at No. 40, one door east. James
j Myers, a fruit man, was at No. 38, and
: Scaudritt & Robinson were bootmakers
at No. 36. Mr. Robinson was afterwards
in business on Youge street with Gillyat,
Robinson & Hall, in boots and shoes. He
always had a polite " How do you do ?"
for all his friends. John Higgins, the
bailiff, was also at No. 36, and McKeand
& Thompson, the cabinet makers, were
at No. 34, the building now occupied by
Hooper & Co.
At the south-west corner of Bay and
King streets, No. 55, stood the brick
building occupied by E. Davis & Co. as
grocers. It ran 57 feet back on the west
side of Bay street. In 1879 this building
was torn down and The Telegram build
ing was erected. One door west of li.
Davis & Co. was No. 57, the baby linen
shop of John H. Swaixn. Next was a row
of white brick buildings, occupied as fol
lows: No. 59, Jno. Goedike, who first sold
mineral waters in Toronto ; No. 61 was
vacant, and C. S. Hayman, a merchant
tailor, was at No. 63. At No. 65 Charle.s
Bender, a well known tobacconist, did
business, and the last of the row, No.
67, was occupied by John Seels, an Eng
lishman, who kept a restaurant noted for
its cleanliness and comfort. A row of two
s torey frame buildings occupied the space
west on this side of the street ui< to the
score of George Harding, the plumber, at
No. 77. At No. 69 Samuel Hammond sold

bread, and at No. 71 Charles Bansley,
a Scotch resident, had a faiicy goods and
variety shop. At No. 73 Edward Back
had a boot and shoe etore, and at No. i
76 D. W. Smith, the dyer, held sway. .The j
descendants of Messrs. Dack and Smith j
are still in business in this block. At
No. 77 George Harding made out bills
for all who desired the well known line
" plumber and helper." He did a large
business, and was candid enough on one
occasion to admit that a plumber s bill
was " past finding out." The east en
trance to the Eoyal Lyceum was just
west of No. 77, and across this lane ;r
entrance was the shop of Hood & Laird,
the picture dealers. Years before 1866
J. E. Pell occupied the Harding building
as a " gallery of art." In the dim dis
tance of the picture may be seen the
Remain buildings, erected by C. E. Ro-
main in 1855. These buildings were de
signed by Kaufmann, the architect of the
Masonic Hall and Kossin House, and con
sidered the best piece of architecture of
their day and are even now much admir
ed. The upper floors of this row were
occupied by C. E. Gzowski & Co., and
D. L. Macpherson, now Sir Casimir Gzow-
ski and Sir D. L. Macpherson, as railway
engineers and contractors, and Hon.
J. H. Cameron, S. B. Harman and Huson
Murray, as barristers. No. 71 Henry
Senary sold pianos, and at No. S3 J. W.
Randall had a saloon. No. 89 was occu
pied by Bernard Saunders (Aid. Sauai-
ders), who carried on merchant tailoring,
and at No. 93 Mr. A. K. Boomer .was
agent for the Fairbanks scales, and for
large flour mills. There were four double
tores on each side of the main entrance
of the Remain buildings, and in 1866 two
of them were vacant. At No. 95, one door
west of the row, was the shop, No. 95,
occupied by P. M. Clark, the merchant
tailor, and at No. 97 Alex. Gernruell,
while at No. 99 Geo. Coleman was a con
fectioner, and this brings us to the west
and main entrance of the old Royal
Lyceum, which was in the rear of these
King etreet buildings.
In 1856 No. 55, the present office of
The Evening Telegram, was No. 44, and
Robert Davis was at the same cornor.
The first building on this site was the
Dennis cottage (1800), and about 1840
a building occupied by French & Wiman
as a chair factory. John Swann was at
No. 46, and W. T, Atkinson, a druggist,
at No. 48, while Hoig & Harens, tailors,
were at No. 50. Hoig was a bright, well-
informed Scotchman. At No. 52 "was
Joseph Stovel, the merchant tailor. The
nauu of Stovel and that of Gibb Co.,
whom P. M. Clark succeeded on King
street we.it, were household words in the
best hom is of Upper Canada. Indeed,
Gibb & Co. wure in business in Montreal
over a century ago, and are atill to the
fore to-day. Gomg further we^t in 1850,
at No. 56 J. Lander was an upholsterer,
and Edwin Smith kept a restaurant at
No. 58. Smith was a small-ized, alfable
Englishman, who had lots of custom. In
those days George Colvman wajs at No.
60, and at No. 62 W. & H. Bansley sold
fancy goode, and at No. 60 Edward Dack,
Latham & Co., dyers, and Charles Bans-
ley also dealt in fancy goods. At No. 62
Samuel Turner made shoos, and David
Smith, with his son to-day, is a dyer of
no mean repute. Then J. C. Pell, a brother
of J. E. Pell, had an art store, and No.
66 across a lane, which led to the rear
of King, was unoccupied. In 1856 the
Remain buildings were not built, and the
old brick houses that stood on the site
were the buildings once (1846) occupied
by Macdonald s Hotel. At No. 68 J. B.
Riley kept hotel. He afterwards had a
hotel in the pre^ant Queen s Hotel build
ings on Front street, after which he mov
ed to the south-weit corner of King and
York streets and kept the Revere House.
At No. 70 King street the Misses Burns
had a fancy store and at No. 72 Joseph
Harknees, the old bandmaster of the 71st
Regiment, sold pianos. In the same build
ing were the offices of the Ontario, Sim-
cos & Huron Railway, with Alfred
Brunei as chief engineer. At No. 74 Gibb
& Co. "were in the shop now occupied,
by the new building of P. M. Clark, and
at No. 76 Mrs. M. A. Higgina sold fancy
goods, and Mrs. J. F. Lyon twas a
modiste. At No. 78 Thomas McConkey,
father of George, had a restaurant, and
next was the Royal Lyceum entrance,
with John Nickinson as lessee.
At the north-west corner of King and
Bay streets was the Metropolitan Hotel,
occupied by Mr. Thomas Brown. This
building was originally erected by the
Bank of Montreal, and after its removal
to the corner of Front and Yonge streets,
the building was turned into apartments
and chambers for lawyers. It was sub
sequently purchased by the late John
Riordan, and the present Mail building
erected thereon. In pulling down the old
structure the vaults of the old bank
were discovered in as good condition as
when erected in the thirties. The build
ings west of the Metropolitan were three
storey brick. Some are there to-day, al
though those immediately west of the
Mail building have been torn down and
rebuilt. In 1866 Henry Lindsay had a
fruit shop at No. 50 1-2, while No. 62
was vacant. At No. 54 James B. Mar
shall had a hairdressing shop, and at
No. 56 William Roberts had a shooting-
gallery. At No. 58 John Wilson was a
confectioner, and at No. 60 Mre.

sold fruit. At No. 62 Gleesoii & "Bell
were coal oil and lamp dealers. Lamb s
Hotel was formerly (1856) at Nos. 57
and 69 on this side of the street, occu
pying the site of about Nos. 58-60.
lu 1856, or teu years earlier than the
view giveu in the picture, the red brick
building occupied by the Metropolitan
Hotel in 1866, was occupied as offices,
iu which were Alexander McDonald, solici
tor, now of Osgoode Hall; James Grand,
the architect, father of James Grand, of
Grand & Toy; Charles Fitzgibbou, regis
trar of the Court of Probate, a son of
Col. James Fitzgibbon, of the 49th Regi
ment; W. J. Fitzgerald, the registrar
of the Surrogate; and Thomas Ridout,
civil engineer. Mr. Ridout is now an in
spector of railways for the Dominioii
Government. He was the eldest sou of
the late Tu Gibbs Ridout, of the Bank
of Upper Canada. One door west, at No.
47, George Harding was a plumber, and
the Toronto Waiter- works office, owned
by Mr. Furniss, had offices, G. K. Rad-
i ord being manager. The Furniss works
were bought by the city of Toronto.
At No. 49 Dr. Wood, a denti<st, a, famous
professor of the dental art, practiced 1
his profession. All the email boys with
tooth troubles were sent to Dr. Wood.
Once the tooth was within tiie precincts
of the steel ends of the forceps the
tooth had to come out, even if it caused*
a struggle for the tooth by the operator
and for liberty by the boy. At No. 51
Lewis Holmes had the Clifton saloon,
and at No. 53 Jessie Bloomfiold was a
milliner. At No. 55 Charles Bender had
his tobacco shop before he moved to the
south side of the street, and at No. 57
and No. 59 stood the well known Lamb s
Hotel.
On the north-east corner of King and
Bay streets was the handsome cut stone
residence of the late William Cawthra,
and directly east, as shown in the pic
ture, was No. 46, the shop of Thomas
Dexter. No. 44, which is not shown, was
vacant in 1866, and No. 42, a small
whop, had for an occupant J. R
Brown, a coloured man and a
well patronized bootmaker. At No.
40 1-2 John Mink had livery stables, and
at No. 40 John Elgie was proprietor of
a three-storey brick building, called
Elgie s Hotel. In 1856 C. & J. Mitchell
kept the Lovejoy Hotel at No. 40, and
William Hickman, or "Bill," as he was
better known, had a grocery at No. 42.
Charles Baker, the tailor, had No. 46
in 1856. "Charlie" Baker s trousers were
always of fashionable cut, and he was
liberally patronized. Now all is changed.
The cut stone mansion of William Caw
thra, designed and built by Joseph
Sheard, has taken the place of Mrs,
Kuott (1840) at the corner, and the
Canada Life Building looms up upon the
site of Baker s, Hickman s and Brown s
buildings and the old Lovejoy House.
The late J. G. Howard was an architect
of repute, and as a critic his opinion
was valued. One day, ten years ago,
when chatting with the writer in the
private office of The Telegram, Mr. How
ard, who in earlier days at Upper Can
ada College had the writer as a pupil,
said : "My boy, do you want to see, one
of the best designed buildings in To
ronto ?* And on assent being given, he
called the writer to the window, and,
pointing to the Cawthra House, said :
"There it is. That s Joseph Sheardrs
work, and good work it is."
In 1856 the Cawthra corner was
vacant, Charles Baker being one door
east, in No. 37, aud, continuing east,
F. Lasher, a fruiterer, No. 85. William
Hickman, better known as "Bill," was at
No. 33. Christopher and John Mitchell
had the Lovejoy House, afterwards called
the Elgie s, and at No. 29 Charles March,
the painter, had the shop that to-day
is the office of the Verral Company,
while Honoria Flinn had a small shop
where she sold provisions, and at NOJ
27 Nicholas Strangs, or rather his wife,
Mrs. Strangs, was a broker, and sol<*
second-hand clothes. What Mrs. Strangs
did not know of every family in Toronto
from 1830 was not worth knowing. The
best people in Toronto knew Mrs.
Strangs, for she was convenient, and not
ill-liberal in buying old dresses, and fur
ther had not only a plentiful supply of
coin, but lots of gossip. William Ash-
field, afterwards chief of the fire bri
gade, was a gunmaker at No. 21, a small
shop. He afterwards moved into the
three-storey building now occupied by
Clancy, while E. H. Blogg. a bootmaker;
Miss Bolster, and Pagerit & Co. were
cooks and confectioners. Across the lane
east of the present Chop House, David
i Wilson made boots at No. 19, and David
i Davis was a grocer at No. 17, while
J all the space from No. 17-19 was known
as No. 11, owned and occupied by Wm.
I Higgins, the high constable. Nb. 17-19
| is the site of the Manning Arcade.
The only buildings given in Jthe jrf$-
ture of this section of the Landmark
are the shops of Thomas Dexter and
Charles Baker, and the Cawthra house.

CHAPTER XXIV.
THE GREAT CORNERS OF THE CITY
The Thoroughfares That all theYear Round
Morning, Noon and Night, Hear the Foot-
Falls of Busy Men.
When early in the thirties, betweeni
1830-4, some of the land on the nortti-
west corner of King and Tonge streets
was sold for a few dollars a foot, .and not
ten at that, those who sold thought they
were getting full value for the ground,
while those who bought certainly never
dreamed that twelve inches front of
ground, about 100 feet deep, then selling
for $4 or $5, would sell sixty years Jater
for some thousands. And yet this is a
fact. Nearly an acre on the north
east corner sold in 1800 for a few hun
dred dollars in Halifax currency, while
the south-west and south-east corners al
ways were looked on as the choice busi
ness locations, neither of which have
changed hands since the first purchase
by the Bostwick and the Baldwins re
spectively. The north-east corner has
been until recent years in the possession
of the Dennis family, while the north-west
corner belongs to the estate of the late
Dr. Lawlor.
This is one of the busy corners of To
ronto, although perhaps the sidewalks:
on the south-west and north-west cor
ners of Tonge and Queen streets can claim
a greater passenger traffic, owing to the
great retail stores in the neighbourhood.
This landmark concerns the year 1866,
when Moses Staunton had the building,
Nos. 2 and 4, on the north-west corner
of King and Yonge streets. R. W. Au-
derson, the photographer, the same artist
who photographs the landmarks for The
Telegram, was at No. 6, and James Jack
son, the China dealer was at No. 8, "Mr.
Statiuton was a broad minded Irishman,
full of business energy and for many
years did a large trade on the corner.
James Jackson in the days of the volun
teer fire brigade, was captain of the hose
company, or, as it was for a time -known,
" The Jackson Hose."
One door west of Jackson s in this row
of brick buildings was between 1841-52
the depository of the Church Society, and
for some time the office of the Church
newspaper under the management of Mr.
Thonms Champion. The entrance of this
office was by the lane in the rear from
Yonge street. There were some old faces
in his office David Sleeth, for so many
years with the Leader, Mansfield, Archie
Davis, William A. Myers, Wash. Clenden-
aing, John Hogg, afterwards of Colling-
wnod. as an apprentice, and Alexander
Jacques was a type. All of these, John
Hogg only excepted, have gone with their
final revise.
All the shops from the corner were
three storey brick. Then came a row of
two storey frame, with W. C. Morrison,
the goldsmith, at No. 12, while a half
shop, No. 12 1-2, was vacant. Next was
the store of Carnegie & Brother, the
watchmakers, who made the first illum
inated clock in Toronto. This timepiece
overhung their doorway, as seen in the
engraving, and in the wall at the west
side of the door was another clock
set in the wall which gave
the changes of the sun, the moon, and
the stars, and other information to be
found in clocks with extra mechanical
contrivances. From Nos. 16 to 20 there
was but one house, the cottage of Mr.
William Higgins, the high constable.
Higgins was a heavily built, powerful
mini, one of iron nerve. The late Alex
ander Jacques wrote iu 1889 that " no
man ever had a hand shake from Higgins
without remembering his energetic re
sponse." His strength in his prime was
noted, and he frequently, wrote Mr.
Jacques, " would allow two men on one
side of a Counter to grasp him by -each
hand, while without any effort he would
pull both across the counter with the
greatest ease."
In 1866 Themes Lalor, the locksmith,
! rented the Higgin s house, while small
shops to the west were occupied by H.
Russell, general dealer, No. 28, N. Holmes,
engraver, No. 28 1-2 ; Samuel Cleary had
a carpenter shop in the rear of No. 28,
and Mrs. Susan Wilson, widow of David
Wilson and Joseph Catello, a labourer,
lived in two frame houses in the rear of
No. 28.
At No. 30 Mr. A. Thomas had the Eng
lish Chop Hous, a three storey building,
now occupied by Clancy, and prior to
Thomas, by Ashfield, the gun maker, af
terwards chief of the fire brigade. Tlhen
came three small two storey buildings.
No. 32, F. Meagher sold oil and lamps.
No. 32 1-2, used by Harry Nelson, the
" professor in hair dressing," as a shop,
in which the late Dick Jackson worked,
and at No. 34, David Davis, a coloured
man, restored clothing even when it was
! near the sere and yellow leaf of old age.
j The sheds further west on this side of the
j street fronted the butcher shop of William
! Dever, a shop, No. 36, remarkable not
only for its good beef, but for its general
cleanliness. The wooden slabs of other
days gave way in this shop to marble,
and the scales in the shop always looked
as if they had just come from the nnaker.
The meat was so shown as to be tempting
to an epicure, and the weight had always
the reputation of being on the side of

tbe customer. At No. 38 William Charl-
ton had a saloon, and in the rear lived
Mrs. Margaret Grant, the widow of John
Grant, and the mother of a Toronto at
torney of the day. At 38 1-2 Alfred ;
Scadding, the carpenter, a skillful
mechanic, and so well read a man that
the late John Ellis, the engraver, styled
him as " the literary carpenter." Tfhen
came Elgie s Hotel, the old Lovejo-y
House, and to the corner the shops
given in another landmark.
The south-west corner is not all showm
in the picture. The corner in 1866 was
the shop of W. H. Dow, a dry -goods man,
.and at No. 2 William Faulkner & Co.,
father of George Faulkner, sold toots and
shoes. At No. 5 James Fraser, a skilled
and experienced accountant and insurnnee
agent, had an office, and upstairs Pat
terson & Beatty, and J. C. Hamilton, all
barristers, had offices. At No. 7 was the
firm of Fulton, Michie & Co., now Michie
& Co., and at No. 9 John Eiddell. the
merchant tailor, and at No. 11 JohW
Ellis, the father of Mr. Ellis at High
Park, the engraver, and upstairs
Octavius Thompson, the engraver, Johjn
Hector, Q. C., a barrister, and James T.
Smith, the architect. No. 13 was vacant,
and at No. 15 was Joseph Robinson, in
the Sheffield House. At No. 17 Thomas
Maclear & Co. were in retail books, and
upstairs Dudley & Burns, the printers,
now of Colborne street, had an office.
The tall building on the corner of Melinda
street wa that of Jacques & Hay, a new
building, the firm having removed from
the corner of Bay and King streets. This
shop occupied the site of the news and
bookstore of Irving & Thompson, after
wards A. S. Irving. This building was
divided into three stores. In the centre
of this building about 1856-57 was estab
lished the firet news depot in Toronto by
L. D. Campbell, an American, and the
entire stock was on a shelf ten feet long
and a counter 6x3. The shop was ten
feet front and the site was about under
the third window of the present Bank of
Commerce. James Macdonald, the dyer,
occupied the western third of the shop
referred to in 1866. The next building
was the old Commercial Bank building,
afterwards the Globe. This was convert
ed into shops about 1860. At No. 23 John
D. Linton, a nephew of Angus Dallas, had
a wood and willow ware shop, and at No.
25 was vacant until May, 1866, when it
was taken as the business office of the
Daily Telegraph newspaper. The store to
the west, also in the Dallas building, was
occupied by David Wilson, the booti.iaker.
He had removed from the opposite side of
the street. At No. 27 William Klopp
old pipes and tobacco, and at No. 29
S. M. Shaw had a circulating library,
while in rear of No. 31 was the restaur
ant of Arthur Hogben. The Misses Bate
were fashionable ladies hairdressers at
No. 31, and R. T. Pocknell was a confec
tioner at No. 33. McDougall & Co. had
a news depot at No. 35, about 18, and
then Waine & Hall, afterwards E. RI. Hall
& Co., then Rogers & Clayton and George
Boswell, and finally A. Si. Irving. It is
the present shop of H. A. Wilson & Co.
R,. B. Butland was in music at No. 35, as
his family are to-day. James Bales had
a tailor ehop at No. 41, and Wm. Win-
deat, the photographer, and Thos. H.
Martin, the portrait painter, were up
stairs, and the late James McGinn had a
billiard parlour in the ehop known as
No. 41. Hooper & Co. were at No. 43,
their present stand, and Phillip Jacobi
was at No. 47 ; J. Park, No. 49 ; R. S.
Thompson, 49 1-2 ; D. S. & B. Adams,
No. 51 ; and the old building of Jacques
& Hay at the corner of King and Bay
streets.
In 1856 the north and south sides of
Kiiug street west had some of the same
occupants as in 1866. At the Staunton
corner Haycraft, Small & Addison had
a music store, and on King street, to
the west, were the offices of C. A. Mon-
delet, S. E. Gregory and C. Bradburne,
the agent of the Canada Life Company.
James Jackson was at No. 3, and at
No. 5 was Anthony Dillon, an artist s
colourman. At No. 7 Alexander Gem-
mell, the shoeman, and at No. 9 Parson,
Johnson & Co., soap and candle men,
and next door west Thomas Beaty, a
watchmaker, and J. C. (Pell, the gilder,
Going west to the corner of Bay were
the houses of Wm. Higgins, Daniel Davis,
David Wilson, the bootmaker; Pagerit &.
Co., James Ashfield, Mrs. Strangs, Mrs.
Flinn, Charles March (now the Verral
office), C. & J. Mitchell, Hickman, Lasher
and Charles Baker. The four last men
tioned shops are now occupied by the
Canada Life Building. The corner was
vacant and was afterwards built on by
Wm. Cawthra.
On the south-west side at the corner
of King and Yonge streets, was, in 1856,
W. H. Dow, dry goods (No. 2), and up
stairs Larratt W. Smith, barrister ; Geo.
T. Berthon, the portrait painter, and
Stephen Richards, the barrister, had of
fices. Mr. Berthon was the painter of
many of the portraits in Oegoode Hall.
Mr. Richards became the Hon. Stephen
some years later. At No. 4 Adam Wilson
afterwards Sir Adam and John Hector
were in partnership as barristers, and at
No. 6 Fulton, Michie & Go., were retail
grocers. At No. 8 John Riddell and Mc
Lean were merchant tailors, and John
Ellis conducted an engraving establish-

mnt at No. 8. Upstairs in this building
were the officer of Kivas Tully, the archi
tect and civil engineer ; F. F. Passmore,
the surveyor ; T. C. Bramly, agent of
the Toronto Brick Company, and C. R.
Commander, agent of a London publish
ing company. la No. 10 Matilda Haas
sold embroidery, and at No. 12 J. C.
Beckett & Co., the predecessors of Hooper
<fc Co., had the leading chemiet s shop of
Toronto. At the corner, where Wheaton
& Co. are to-day, -was the book shop of
Andrew H. Armour, a well-known book-
Beller of the peiiod. The late John Kerr
was manager for A. H. Armour & Co.,
and Francis Nesbitt was an employe.
Crossing Jordan street, was the boot
store of Win. Faulkner, afterwards the
shop of A. S. Irving, and next door was
the first newa store in Toronto, that of
L. D. Campbell. No. 18 was part of the
Dallas block, and was unoccupied in 1856,
but No. 20 had Angus Dallas in the wood-
enware business, and at No. 22 was the
Globe office. At No. 24 was John Godike,
the grocer, who, ten years later, was
west of Bay street on King, in the min
eral water business.
An early echoolhouse of York stood in
rear of A. H. Armour s on the corner. It
stood on the north-east corner of Jordan
and Melinda streets, Mr. Thos. Thompson
being the preceptor and guide to know
ledge. It was also in this building that
the Mechanics Institute was organized in
1830.
All the original buildings from the St.
Charles restaurant on Yonge street,
around King street to Jordan, were
erected in 1834-36.
The streets that cut Into four quarters
the large block of land from Bay street
to Yonge street, and from King to Well
ington, are named after Jordan and Me-
linda Poet, who were early settlers and
owners. iPcst was a clockmaker, and had
in 1830 a small shop, a frame building,
on the south-east corner of Bay and King
streets.
CHAPTER XXV.
A FRONT STREET WEST VIEW.
The Water Front Betweeii John and Peter
Streets and the Residence of the Hon.
George Cruickshank.
The two most prominent buildings on
Front street, weat of John, from 1820-
85, were two private residences, one that
Of the Hon. George Cruikshanki oe the
corner of Front and Peter, and the
second, the dwelling of John Beikie, the
Clerk of the Executive Council early in
the century and at one tinp sheriff of
tto tow of York (1811-12). These build
ings had an unobstructed view of th
bay, the island and the lake for nearly
half a century, not that the view is
much interfered with in modern days,
but the ereotion of the waiter-works
engine hous and of the rows of freight
sheds, the railway round housea and the
signal cabins of the Grand Trunk and
Canadian Pacific to a certain extent

50 was one of the finest in Toronto.
Front street is the street of all others
that can lay claim to an antiquity not
shared by any other in Toronto. When
Simcoo arrived in York he not only sail
ed down the bay and up the Don at the
east end of the bay, but he tramped
along the embankment that averaged a
height of thirty and forty feet from the
spot selected for a fort at the wast end
of the site chosen for a city, down to a
few hundred yards of the Don, for at
that distance the high bank had a gentle
slope into the bay and river after pass
ing what was, in later days, the fair
green, directly w,t>8t of the jail and op
posite the foot of the present Berkeley
street.
The picture marked No. 1 gives Front
street west from the north-east corner
of Front and Peter streets to within
seventy feet of the north-west corner of
Front and John streets.
The view gives on the north-east corner
of Front and Peter streets the original
residence of the late Hon. George Cruik-
shank. The house was built in colonial
cottage style, with a centre building of
fifteen feet front, and a couple of wing*
east and west of about twenty feet each,
and these composed the main building,
while from each of these winge were
smaller extensions of about 20 feet,
which were flanked by wings of fifteen
feet, the gable windows of each being
shown in the picture. The house was
built back from the street line about 60
feet, and the frontage of the building
was as in the diagram. The mam en
trance in the centre front of thia pioneer
residence, for it was erected about 1800,
was protected and ornamented with, a
porch, which had not only a certain
amount of beauty given it by the colonial
carpenter, but, according to Mr. William
Helliwell, who was in Toronto in 1818,
it was in the summer time covered with
vines. The centre over the porch was
peaked, and a small window directly
over the porch indicated an attic or gar
ret room, such as was common in houses
of that date and build. The house was of
frame ordinary clapboard and painted
white. Standing as It did some distance
from the street line, there was room
for shrube, and the large trees

that covered this part of Front street
as shown in early pictures must have
made the situation of the dwelling ex
ceptionally pleasant for its occupants.
The fact that this cottage residence was
a pioneer building, erected before the
War of 1812, is shown by a list of houses
built before the war on Front street,
"1, Mr. Cruikshank, 2, Mr. Beikie." In
1821 Mr. Cruikehauk erected in front of
the old house a more modern structure
as given in picture No. 2. This new house
was of frame, filled in with brick, the
walls being very thick. It was a roomy
two-storey residence, and occupied all
the front of the street line for about a
hundred feet, the original cottage of
1805 serving as the rear of the modern
structure. About 1850 the house (was
covered with brown stone plaster and
artistically blocked out a process which
rather improved its looks. As with the
pioneer dwelling the residence of 1821
had a centre with two wings, with a
large porch or vestibule ornamented in
colonial style. It is to be noted that not
only the best residences in York and
Toronto, but some of the more humble
cottage buildings, had considerable
ornamentation about the doors and
windows. The old porch of "The Grange,"
iiow replaced by stone, and the doorway
of No. 26 Terauley street, are examples
of both. The hall of the Cruikshank resi
dence of 1821 was large and roomy,
leading out in each side to a spacious
room, which, for their day, were the
best appointed in York. On the w^st
side of the house there were two large
drawing rooms and a spacious dining
room and library on the east side, while
the upper floors had a suite of sleeping
rooms. The Hon. George Cruikshank, for
we adhere to the Scotch orthography
rather than the more modern "Crook-
shank," although both spellings are con
sidered correct, was a pioneer in the
best sense of the term. He was born in
New York in 1773 of Scotch parents, who
crossed the ocean before 1770. His
parents were United Empire Loyalists,
and after the war of the American
revolution they emigrated to St. John,
New Brunswick.
Miss Catharine Cruikshank, a sister of
Mr. George Cruikshank, married Mr. John
McGill, who was the first Receiver-Gen
eral of Upp^r Canada. Mr. McGill knew
Governor Simcoe in Virginia, and by him
w.is invited to settle in Upper Canada. Mr.
MoGill cot only did so, but advised Mr.
George Cruikshank to cast his lot in the
Upper Province. Both gentlemen, there-
lore, cam* to Yock in 1796, so that both
had a part in the laying out of the
embryo city. The Hoii. Fetsr McGill, of
Montreal, was a son of a sister of Mr.
John McGill, who married a Mr. Mc-
Cutcheou. Mr. James McCutcheon was the
agent of Mr. John McGill in Upper Can
ada.
It was in the last year of Simcoe s term
as Lieutenant-Govemor that Mr. Cruik
ehank was appointed Deputy Commissary
General, and after the war retired on
half-pay. Mr. John McGill was the first
Receiver-General of the Province of Up
per Canada. Mr. Cruikshank was a young
man, only 23 years of age, when he ar
rived in Toronto, and his energy and
business sagacity not only gave him the
opportunity of serving the province in his
official capacity, but also enabled him
to advance the interests of the town in
which he had determined to make his
future home. During hie term in the
commissariat he had charge of the build
ing of the fort at Toronto, and a memor
andum is extant showing that all the
material furnished in 1803 for Govern
ment buildings,including the Government
house in the fort, were duly acknowledged
by Mr. Cruikshank. All these buildings
were, of course, destroyed in the war
of 181215. On his settlement in To
ronto Mr. Cruikshauk purchased three
hundred acres of land, some of which was
on the bay front, and the rest in the
worth-western part of the city, west of
Bathurst street, that part north of
Queen being known for many years a
Cruikshank s lane.
In the records of the York County Regis
try Office from 1797 to 1861, under the
grants on Market street, now Wellington,
"Lot 13, All. 1, August 10, 1801," was
patented to "George Crookshank," and
"No. 14, All. 1, June 10, 1801," to the
"Hon. John McGill." This means that
one acre on the south side of Market
etreet (Wellib. gtota), east of Peter and
south to Front, was patented to Mr.
Cruikshauk, and the west lot to his
"brother-in-law, Mr. McGill. In the ic-
cords of October 17ith, 1843, a half-acre,
No. 6, was patented, and 1 1-2 and 2
acres on 10th June, 1837, both parcels;
to "Hon. George Crookshank," and also
one acre "south of King," to " George
Crookshank." In 1821 Mr. Cruikshank
married an American lady, a Miss Lam
bert, and by her had a son, George,
who entered Upper Canada College in
1843, and who died in the early fifties,
and a daughter, now the widow of the
late Mr. Stephen Heward, now residing
at 38 Peter street. Mr. Cruikshauk was
a member of the Legislative Council of
Upper Canada, but after the union of
the provinces in 1841 he took little or
no interest in party politics.
During the occupation of York by tt

Americans, in 1813, the Cruikshank
bouse was used by American officers. The
house was divided in 1863 into two
houses, and was finally pulled down in
1881. The house of 1801, in the rear,
which formed part of the structure of
1821, was pulled down at the same time.
In the directory of 1833 Peter street
is "The last street west of the town,"
and "commences in Front street, front
ing the bay, and runs north," and "at
the south-east corner, Crookshank, the
Hon. George, on the left houses build
ing by the Honourable George Crook-
ehftnk." These are the red brick houses
now numbered 38, 50-2, on the west
side of Peter Street.
A garden to the east of the Cruik-
shank house, enclosed within the board
fence shown, occupied another hundred
feet, and adjoining this garden on the
west is shown in print No. 1, the dwell
ing house of John Beikie, which stood
on the site of the present Windsor street,
which was opened about 1854-55. Some
particulars of John Beikie s life have
been given in another landmark (pp. 469-
70,, Vol. I.). The Beikie house was a
frame, clap-boarded building, with high
steps, leading up to an open porch, a
seat on either side, upon which of an
evening Mr. Beikie had his ease, after
his official duties were at an end. The
porch was colonial in shape, like that of
the Canada Company, on the north-east
corner of King and Frederick streets. The
drawing of the Beikie house is a capital
reproduction of the primitive frame build
ing, by Mr. Stephen He ward, son of Mrs.
Heward, 38 Peter street, from the ori
ginal picture made in 1810. Residents of
Toronto up to 1860 will remember the
house, and pioneers may recall the se
verely plain style of architecture that
characterized it.
The Beikie house, given as "No. 2" in
the list of 1815, was prominent for its
plainness in architecture, the porch be
ing about the only bit of carpenter work
that relieved the monotony of old-time
wooden buildings. In the directory of
York for 1833, "Xo. 70," at the north-)
east corner of Peter and Front streets,
is "No. 70," the residence of the "Hon.
George Crookshank," and "No. 68," the
first house to the east, the residence of
"John Beikie, Esq., Clerk of the Execu
tive Council." Mr. Beikie came to York
alxHit 1802, and from 1820-33 he was
clerk of the Executive Council of Upper
Canada. He married some years after
the war Miss Macdonell, a relative of
Mr. Alexander Macdonell, of Osgcode Hall
(1896). Beikie was a well read man,
and had a remarkable memory. He waa
a marvel aa a memorizer, and was a
leading member of the Masonic frater
nity in Toronto in 1822-30. He was fond
of gardening, and in front of his house
a email plot of ground had a few choice
flowers. He waa also fond of music, his
favourite instrument being the flute. In
1803 he was a pew-holder in St. James
church, and was specially fond of the
musical service. A story is told that
he was so fond of music that when Bishop
Alexander Macdouell, of York, celebrated
the first mass in the town, that Mr.
Beikie, notwithstanding the fact that
he was an Anglican, aided the Bishop
by leading the singing in connection with
the service. His house was partly torn
down early in the fifties. The eastern
side of it was moved a short distance
to the east when Windsor street was
opened. This part of the house has now
a shop front. Fifty feet further east thau
the Beikie residence waa in 1810 an open
space, a bit of the natural forest, with
a score of tall elms that filled part
of the acre I6t north to Market (Welling
ton) street.
The building on the s/treet line a hun-*
dred feet east of Beikie s, prior to 1815,
was that of " Esperlon, a discharged
soldier from De Wattevill s Regiment,
built by John Endicott, of Yonge street."
In a list of houses given as erected be
fore the war this house is described as
"No. 3" on Front street. The name is
sometimes rendered " Ekerlin." This
house was probably the west building
of the three given between Beikie a and
the corner of John street. The build*
ings at present on the site are part
of the house. In the directory of 1833
"Xo. 64" is given as the house of "Eker 1 -
1 lin, B., Issuer in the Commissiariat
Store."
The first house east of Ekerlin s was
j the Halfway House. This house was built
after the war for it is not given in the
official list of houses west of Simcoa
street. It is possible that it may have
been added to the Ekerlin house about
1816-17, and is shown in the picture with
ai email porch at the front door. It waa
a favourite place of resort for soldiers
from the garrison. In the early days the
Halfway Honse was occupied by officers
of the garrison and afterwards it became
a. tavern. The small building east of the
Halfway House was part of the tavern.
Between 1840-60 the bar room was in
I the centre building with the porch. The
writer resided fnftn 1841-56 on Simcoe
street and knew all the buildings on Front
] street, and the Halfway House was a

na the Bay shore as shown in the picture
was built about 1810. It was there in
1852, just before the filling in of the Es
planade in front of the city. It was a
storehouse, and a few feet west, almoet
opposite the foot of John street, was a
shed used by the military as a guard
house, and up to 1855 a sentry alwajw
paced in front of this small building.

while the guard was regularly relieved
by the soldiers of whatever regimetnt
was stationed in the Old Fort, at the
west end of Front street. The foregoing
is a description of this Front street view;
as from 1800-20.
The original of the picture given as No.
1 was painted about 1814 by a Mr. (Ir
vine, a Scotchman, a cousin of Mr. Cruik-
Khank. who was a pioneer at Detroit dur
ing the war.
This fact shows that the Halfway was
standing before the war. The picture, No.
2, was the Cruikshank residence from
1821. This was painted by Mr. William
Armstrong from a pencil sketch made un
der the direction of Mrs. Stephen Reward.
After 1830 there were quite a few
changes in this locality. East of the
Beikie house Mr. Peter Robinson, brother
of Sir J. B. Robinson, erected a twx>-
storey brick dwelling that is still to the
fore. He occupied it till his death when ,
Mrs.Heward moved into it. About 1860 the
late Sir James Lukin Robinson purchas- |
ed the house,formerly the Beikie residence,
and opened up Windsor street. The cor
ner of Front and John streets was oc
cupied by the Greenland Fishery Taverfu.
The building with a couple to the east
of it still remains. That tavern wa
kept by Edward Wright and was No. 58
on the Street. The first house west, 60,
was that of Edward (Jressell, Issuer in the
CommifliBariat, and at No. 62 William^
Heather, bricklayer, and a Mrs. Hutch
ison, occupied. At No. 64 was the ori
ginal house of B. Ekerliu, as occupied by
him in 1812-15, and at No. 66 was a
frame house, painted white, built prior
to 1832, the residence of Col. N. Coffin,
Adjutantt-Geueral of the Militia. All
these houses in this landmark with the
exception of the military storehouse,
were either on or a little north of the
street line of Front street, and stood
abou<t a hundred and fiftf - ft-et from the
edge of the bank that led in some places
by a eteep incline to the shore below.
The bank had a slope to the street from
east to wept at the foot of Peter
street, and also at the west end of the
military storehouse, so that descent to a
splendid beach was not difficiOt.

CHAPTER XXVI.
FRONT STREET NEAR YONGE.
A View That Recalls Quite a Number of th
Old Buildings A. Busy Thoroughfare for
the Past Sixty Years.
Front street to the east of Yonge, es
pecially on the north side, was a busy
thoroughfare from 1840. The American
Hotel, built about 1844, on the site of
the Sherwood residence, was much fre
quented by travellers, and when in the
fifties the steamer trade became active
citizens from the east end always came
by way of Front street to Yonge street.
On the 20th June, 1837, when Queen
Victoria was proclaimed Queen an ox was
roasted on the vacant space at the cor
ner of Yonge street, where the Sherwood
House stood, and where the American
Hotel, which was Nos. 2 and 4, on Frofnt
street, was afterwards built. In 1870.
the year of this landmark, at No. 8
Nicol Milloy was agent for lake steamers,
and at No. 10, one door further east, JPar-
son Bros, were dealers in oils and lamps.
This site is now the Board of Trade
building. Nos. 12-16, two storey brick
dwellings were built in 1842, but
converted into business places about
1850. At No. 12-14 the Machine Made
Hat Company had its factory, and at
No. 16 W. D. Matthews & Co., the com
mission merchants in grain, who to-day
do one of the largest businesses in this
line in Canada. The Grand Trunk rail
way had Richard Arnold, a genial and
affable man ae their agent at No. 24.
and in the same building Henry Bour-
lier, the pioneer agent of the Allan
line, had his office. He is still as ener
getic as ever for the same company. The
building occupied by Messrs. Arnold aad
Bourlier was a small red brick building,
erected about 1870, on the north-west
corner of Front and Scott streets. Be
fore that time the fruit garden of
Mrs. Carfrae and of Stedman B. Camp
bell occupied this site. Across the street
was the Niagara House, a restaurant,
kept by Wm. Guest. This building was
at one time a theatre. Two doors east at
No. 32 was the Newbiggiug House,
the building that, .prior to 1862
was the North American Hotel kept by
Mr. Horwood. In 1870 John Shedden A
Co., cartage agents, were in a brick
cottage. No. 42, that had been in the
days of 1835-41 the Customs house. This
site in 1872 was known as Nos. 36-38.
and on it stood the Royal Canadian Bank
buildings which ran through to Welling-"
ton street. The buildings east of this on
Front street were occupied by office*. J.
Leckie at No. 42 and J. Bailie at th
same number. No. 50 had Jamee Rough.

the flour inspector, and also Douglas
Laidlaw, corn merchant, D. Davidson,
<rain dealer, J. Harris, grain inspector,
E. M. Carruthers & Co., agents. Mr.
Carruthers was a brother of the Car
ruthers, of Inverness, Scotland, Courier,
a leading paper, J. E. Jacques & Co.,
a,nd W. & H. Jacques, all Montreal men,
connected with freight steamer lines.
At No. 52 M. & L. Samuel were iin iron,
as they are to-day, on Front street west,
as the firm of M. L. Samuel & .Benjamin,
and at No. 54 J. & A. Clark twerecommis>-
eion merchants, and J. Laidlaw, also a
merchant. At No. 56 W. B. Scarth, the
present Deputy Minister of Agriculture
for the Dominion, was a timber merchant,
and at No. 58 the Dominion Telegraph:
Company had offices, and also William
Thorn, merchant.
From No. 50 was the Coffin block, re
cently torn down to be replaced by the
handsome building of the Gooderham &
Worts Co.
The building in the picture to the east
of the Newbigging House, is the rear of
the warehouse of John Macdonald & Co.
which fronted on Wellington street.
On the opposite side of the street, op
posite the Niagara House, is the building
of Frank Smith & Co., now occupied by
Eby, Blain & Co. The fence on the south
west corner of Scott and Front enclosed a
coal yard now the warehouse of E. C. Eck-
hardt & Co., formerly occupied by Eby,
Blain & Co., is on this site. The buildings
in the back ground, far to the east, are
the Manning block on the north side of
Front, east of Church.
It will be of interest in this landmark
to go back to an earlier period, that
of 1856, when the buildings were about
the same, but the tenants were mostly
men who were active in many business
callings before the year 1850.
In 1856 the corner of Front street had
the American Hotel, with N. F. Pearson
&8 proprietor, while in the building on
Front street, to the east of the hotel,
was the offices of Humphrey, Camp &
Patterson, contractors and agents. J.
B. Gordon was a coal agent in the same
building. A large white brick building,
with the sign Parson Bros, on the roof,
was in 1856 the Royal mail steamer
office, and in it also the office of L. H.
Daniels, a popular steamboat agent,
whose energy in business was leavensd
with a manner that made him many
friends. In build he was as straight as
an arrow, and old time hairdressers said
that he had the finest head of hair in
Toronto. He is yet active as the ac
commodating host of the leading hotel
in Preecott, Ont. T. D. Shipman, a vet
eran railway and steamboat man, thin
and spare in build and a quick thinker
in business, was also in this office. Both
Daniels and Shipman were connected
with the Royal mail line. In the row
of two-storey red brick buildings to the
east was the harbour office, with Hugh
Richardson as harbourmaster. There i
a small photograph of him in the Board
of Trade office. In the centre building
resided Samuel Sherwood, chief of police,
who was afterwards city registrar. The
original Corn Exchange was in the east
of the row, with R. A. Goodenough as
secretary, and at the corner of Scott
street was Richard Arnold s Grand Trunk
ticket office. William Wainwrighit and
James Stephenson, late of the Grand
Trunk at Montreal, are sons-in-law of the
late Mr. Arnold. On the north-west cor
ner of Front and Scott John Smith and
Frank Flood, his assistant, had the In
ternational ticket office. Flood took
pride in always being up to the fashion
in dress. The next building was the
North American Hotel, which was then
unoccupied. In the private dwelling to
the east was the residence of the late
William Newbigging. The portion of
this street to the east has been given in
another landmark.
CHAPTER XXVH.
A YONGE_SECTION.
Tbe \orth west and North-east Corner* of
the Great Business Thorongbfare of Forty
Years ago.
Forty years ago, while Tonge street
was one of the great thoroughfares of
Toronto, it had not the importance as
a business street that ir has to-day. In
the early fifties Yonge street, as far as
the city proper was concerned, was but
two mile^ in length, while to-day it is
not only the busy haunt of the bargain
hunters, but its length has been extended
another mile or so into the County of
York, so that from Toronto Bay to the
south line of Mount Pleasant cemeterp-
we have a business street that is a ^vast
improvement on the days of half a cen
tury ago.
The lower end of Youge street prior to
1866 was pre-eminently the centre of the
wholesale dry goods district. But with
in a few years of the period named, he
dry goods men sought better quarters,
and Wellington street east and west, and
Front street, especially to the west of
Yonge, secured in new and improved
warehouses, not only what remained of
the Yonge street wholesale trade, but
that of new comers, who sought wealth
in that particular line within the limits
of Toronto
LANDMARKS OF TORONTO.
Youge street, iiorth of King and up to
Queen, shared to a small extent the dry
goods trade of King street, east of Yonge,
For in the latter section the retail dry
goods men reigned supreme as early as
1836-40, and, aided by the fact that the
market place was east of Church, secured
not only the trade of the farmers of York
county, but that of the citizens of Tor
onto, whose favorite shops were nearly
all on the south side of King, from Yquge
street to Church. The farmers and out
of town people were the reliable cus
tomers of the range of shops located on
the south and north sides of King street,
as far east even as the old boundary
of the Home Distinct, known then as it
is now, as George street.
But business centres change and the
dry goods man, like the pioneer of civil
ization, has moved west. King street
east has but few of the great shops of
forty years ago, and when the sigu on
the south side of King street of the vet
eran dry goods man, James Scott, who
now retires after a successful business
career of over fifty years, is taken down,
the eastern limit of the retail dry goods
man will not be east of the Leader lane.
Youge street, north of King to Ade
laide, in the early fifties, had a miscel
laneous number of dealers on its west
ern side, clothiers, auctioneers, tailors,
druggists, boot makers and hardware
men, with a sprinkling of small dry goods
men. North of Adelaide, on both sides
of the street it was about the same. The
stores were occupied by the various
lines of trade, and the upper rooms of
many of tue Lmimiugs were rented to
printers and publishers, barristers and
book agents at rents far more moderate
than in tnese days of active business
life.
The first buildings that marked an era
of improvement on Yonge street in 1852-
63 were those oh. the north-west and
north-east corners of Youge and Ade
laide streets, the two rows which are
prominent in the foreground of the pic
ture illustrating this chapter. The south
west corner of Yonge and Adelaide streets
was early in the century occupied by
the tannery of Jesse Ketchum. His house
and grounds were on the north-west cor
ner of Yonge and Adelaide streets, and
Extended a hundred feet north. In the
forties a row of wooden buildings oc
cupied the site after the demolition,
of the Ketchum dwelling, and this row,
which was destroyed by fire, was suc
ceeded in 1850 by the brick row shown
and known as the Elgin Buildings. These
-were erected by Mr. Jesse Ketchum, jr.,
and some of the southern shops in the
row are now in the possession of the
Sheard family, having belonged to the
late Joseph Sheard, the architect, at one
time Mayor of the city, and one promin
ent in municipal reform. The name
"Elgin" was selected in honour of Lord
Elgin, who! in 1847-54 was the Governor
of Upper and Lower Canada.
The first shop on the left hand was
that of James & William McDonald, dry
goodf dealers, who occupied the ground
floor of the double store, No. 79, on
tho corner. The members of this firm

1850 carried on the business. Mr. Win.

In one of the upper rooms in the build
ing was the office of Mr. J. R. Joces, a
barrister, a relative of the Hon. Robt.
Jones, of L Orignal. Another portion of
the upper offices was occupied by Wil
liam Lyou McKenzie, the editor and pro
prietor of the Weekly Messenger. The
work of typesetting was performed on
the third floor, and the Message was
worked off every week on a Washington
hand press, the favourite machine for
printers who did not find it convenient
to use the cylinder press, twhich was
worked by steam and which was, in those
days, considered a novelty.
No. 81 was a double store, divided
into single stores and occupied by George
Balfour, a tailor, and William Hamilton,
a boot and shoe maker, who died some
years ago.
The ground floor and basement of No.
83 were leased from Mr. Ketchum by
John nnd William Frederick Cowan, sons
of Mr. Thomas Smith Cowan, a native
of County Fermanagh, Ireland, who emi
grated to Canada in 1840.
The brothers Cowan carried on a re
tail dry goods business at No. 83 (Elgin
Buildings) Yonge street, under the style
of J. & W. Cowan, from 1854 until the
expiration of their lease in 1859, when
they removed to premises owned by Mr.
J. A. Smith, on the south-west corner of
Yonge and Richmond streets, continuing
their avocation at the latter locality
until 1867. G orge Ridout, tbe barrister,
Hugh Rodgora, the agent of th
book subscription firm of Virtue & Co.,
and Patrick Russell, a tailor, also divid
ed between them a portion of the upper
part of the building.
No. 85 was two single stores, the south
one occupied by John T,yuer, the boot
maker, father of two bright press men.

the Toronto Daily Telegraph. Mr. William
Marston, an experienced gunmaker, oc
cupied the north shop of No. 85. He
afterwards moved to the opposite side
of the street and carried on business for
several years and then went out of busi
ness.
The buildings from the north end of
the Elgin buildings were three, built of
red brick. These three are given in
a sketch made by Mr. William Edwards,
which is given with this landmark.
The house to the left of the reader was
built by Alex. McGlashau, and occupied by
a grocer in 1851. It was shortly after
occupied by the late Charles Moore in
the grocery and liquor business, then up
to 1895 by George Sproule, in the picture
and art business. Mr. Moore s establish
ment was known as " The Chequered
Store." He removed to Wellington street
and carried on a wholesale business
The centre house was Duilt and occu
pied by Matthew Shore, saddler, until
1851, when he was bought out and suc
ceeded by Wm. and Robert Edwards, who,
in 1851, were succeeded by William and
John Edwards, in the stationery and
wall paper business. Mr. William Ed
wards was for many years active in con
nection with the Mechanics Institute, the
Agricultural and Arts Association, and is
now secretary of the Department of Pub
lic Works of Ontario (1895).
The south-west corner ot Xoujre nml
Temperance streets was prior to 1851
occupied by a Mr. Wilson as a furni
ture store, with his work shop on Tem
pera-nee street. Subsequently it was oc
cupied by the late Edward Lawson, in
the grocery and confectionery buine*,
and succeeded in the same by Dodgson,
Shields & Morton.
All these stores were subsequently oc
cupied by other parties than these above
mentioned, until in the year 1895 all
three were taken by and altered and fit
ted up and occupied by the John Eaton
Company s departmental store.
Here Temperance street intersected,
and crossing the roadway north was the
shop at No. 93, of J. Belton, boot and
shoe maker, and John Foggin, a quiet and
easy going man, who was a dyer. Next
in No. 95, was William Steward, a sad
dler, and at No. 97 John Wallis carried
on business as a leather merchant. Mr.
Belton married the widow of the late
John Wallis, and continued in the leather
business for a number of years. He has
retired from business, and now resides
on the west side of Yonge street, near
Agnes street.
At No. 99 Alexander Kattray, the
baker, father of W. J. Rattray, a clever
newspaper writer, a man of great abil
ity, and at 99 1-2 Richard Reynolds, the
boot maker, who is still to the fore on
Yonge street, at the corner of Bread-
albane street.
At No. 101 Robert Higiginbotham, also
was in the boot business, and at 101 1-2
George W. Gary, a hair dresser, after
wards in the Ilossin House, on York
street. Gerge W. Gary was a man of
colour, most corteous to his customers, an
easy shaver and noted for the excellent
edge of his razors.
Nos. 103 and 101, the two stores at
the south- west corner of Yonge and Rioh-
inond streets, were two red brick build
ings, which were erected by a Mr. Purk-
is, from whom George Bilton, a retired
King street merchant tailor, had pre
viously purchased the property with the
iiitetitiou of opening a retail dry goods
store.
No. 103 contained Marmaduke Pear
son s familiar form. Mr. Pearson who
carried on a retail dry goods business,
was formerly a partner of Mr. Thomas
Thompson, of " The Mammoth," under the
style of Thompson & Pearson. In 1853
the premises were known as " The Large
103," the name being given to it because
of the large six foot figures painted on
the front of the building. Mr. Pearsolh
occupied this building and the corner
building immediately north contin
uously for thirty years, retiring in 1883.
Mr. Pearson was born in Dublin, Ireland,
and is one of the few pioneer merchantte
of the city now living.
In the shop imrnedia/tely south of
the corner Senator John Macdonald,
who subsequently represented West Tor
onto in the Parliament of United Canada,
and was eventually appointed to the
Dominion Senate, inaugurated a few
years prior to 1854, the first exclusively
retail dry goods business on Youge street.
After a short and successful career Mr.
Macdouald, finding inadequate scope for
the exercise of his energies within the
limits incident to retail operations, sold
out his Yonge street business to Marma
duke Pearson, and thereafter devoted his
efforts to the conduct of a wholesale dry
goods trade, which he established on the
north side of Wellington street, near the
Imperial Bank, next the present Bo
dega, and in premises owned by Mr.
Charles Berczy, postmaster of Toronto,
finally erecting, to meet the growing re
quirements of his business, the imposing
stone structure situated on the south
side of Wellington street.
The premises at the north-east corner
of Wellington street and Leader Lane
were for several years, subsequent to Mr.
Macdouald s tenure, utilized by Messrs.
Rolph, Smith & Co. as a lithographic

known to f;iine as the Bodega restaurant.
At the south-west corner of Richmond
and Yonge streets, already referred to,
for bare Richmond street intersects, were
George Bilton and William Blakely, also
dry goods men. Mr. Blakely is an active
member of the Plymouth brethren. He
retired from busiiie3s some years ago and
still resides in Toronto.
Soon after acquiring the two brick
buildings at the south-west corner, Mr.
Bilton conveyed the title to Mr. I. A.
Smith (known as Yorkshire Smith) as a
consideration, in whole or part, for the
dry goods stock of the latter on his with-
dra/wal from a business which he had
for many years successfully prosecuted,
latterly at the north-west . corner of
King and Francis streets. Mr. Biltou re
linquished the dry goods business after
a, comparatively short experience.
Messrs. Cowan, who had beea in business
at No. S3 Youge street, succeeding Mr.
Biltou in the occupation of the premises,
which had remained for some time
vacant.
In 1860 \V. F. Cowan removed from To
ronto to Oshawa, at which point and at
Prince Albert, Ontario county, he opened
;i branch of the business of his
firm, a a general country store. On
the expiration of the lease of the pren>
ises at the south-west corner of Yonge
an 1 ! Richmond streets, Toronto, in 18G6, J.
& W. Cowan closed their Toronto business.
The succeeding year, 1867, John Cowan
also removed to Oshawa, and, withdraw
ing from the firm, became a partner
with Mr. A. S. Whiting, at the Cedar j
Dale Works, in Oshawa, where the man- \
ufasture of scythes, hoes, forks and other |
hand implements had previously been in- j
augurated and conducted on an extensive
scale by Mr. Whiting. During Mr. Cowan s
connection with the business a portion of
the ^product had found its way to Eng
land, and the circumstance resulted in
the ojieuing of a warehouse and the ap
pointment of a resident agent at Liver
pool, by mean of which a considerable
export trade was created and carried on
for a number of years.
Abcut 1880 W. F. Cowan retired from
the mercantile business, and since his ar
rival iu Oshawa has. in conjunction with
hie brother, been associated with the
promotion of a stove foundry and milling
business ther?., also in establishing at
Oshawa,, iu 1872, the manufacture of mal
leable iron castings. With the latter in
dustry both bi other* aro still comiect-
Sinee their removal to Oshawa, where
lby continuo to reside, Messrs. J. and
W. F. Cowan h:;ve become associated with
banking .^nd IO.IM company interests, the i
former being president of the Western
I Bank and a director of the Ontario Loan
| and Savings Company. Both of these in-
i Ktitutions have their headquarters at
Oshawa.
W. F. Cowan succeeded the late Hon.
T. N. Gibbs in the presidency of the
I Ontario Loan and Savings Company and
the Standard Bank.
The street further north to Queen street
has been given in another chapter, but
in 1856 the shops were occupied as fol
lows : No. 107, John Harrison ; 109, Thos.
Newman ; 111, Thos. Brownscombe ; and
No. 113, J. Grogau & Son, all boot and
shoe makers.
At No. 115 was Charles Roberts, a
cabinet maker, and at No. 117 R. B.
Joy, a confectioner, and E. & H. Hurd,
marble dealers. At No. 119 R. B. Joy
had a hair-dressing shop, and William
Bell kept watches and clocks in the
north half of this building, while Nos.
121-3-5 were the figures over the doors
of James Leask, grocer and dry goods
merchant, whose name in Toronto, espe
cially to the old Scotch families, was a
household word.
The brick store at the south-west cor
ner of Yonge and Queen streets was, in
1856, unoccupied. It had originally been
built by William Mather, of Yonge street,
near Eglinton, and was subsequently oc
cupied by Timothy Eaton, who started
his business in this shop. After
Eaton s removal north of Queen street
the site became the property of Robert
Simpson, and on this site now stands the
immense pile of buildings, which front on
this corner south on Yonge and west on
Queen street, and which was re-opened
in January, 1896, after the disastrous
fire of a year ago.
Returning again to the place of start
ing, at the north-west corner of Yonge
and Adelaide streets, and crossing the
street to the north-east corner, there
was a sign-board familiar not only to
citizens, but to the farmers of Upper
Canada. Shaw s axes, as well* as the
name of the makers, S. Shaw & Son, No.
78, the hardware merchants, were well
known throughout the province. The
senior partner was Samuel Shaw, father
of Mr. Samuel Shaw, the insurance agent,
now of King street, near Toronto street.
Next door north, No. 80, J. W. Millar,
the watchmaker and jeweller, had his
shop. After his death James and Robert
Morrison, his nephews, carried on the
business, and removed to King street
east, in the Market block, and a few
years ago to the second door west of
Church, on the south side of King. On
the death of Mr. Robert Morrison, a few
mouths ago, the business, which had

been in existence for over sixty years,
wa closed out.
Mr. James Jennings, au insurance agent,
at corner of King and Youge stie.. OB
preceded for some years Mr. Timothy
Eaton at this stand, prior to
commencing the wholesale dry goods
business in partnership with a Mr.
Brandon, of Montreal, at Wellington
street east, near Yonge. Previous to Mr.
Jennings tenure of the corner the firm
of Hill & Grose occupied it for less than
two years as a retail dry goods store.
At No. 82 two single shops were oc
cupied by W. E. Robertson, a clothier,
and Robert Cathron, a dry goods dealer.
After Mr. Cathron retired from business
he joined the Freehold Building Society,
as cashier, and only severed his connec
tion with it a few mouths ago 1896.
At No. 84 A. H. Earl carried on. a re- :
tail dry goods business. George S. Glea-
.son made shoes one door north, and one
Craig, also a manuiacturer, were an in
this one building.
At No. 86 John Hawke, who died long
ago, fitted customers with boots and
shoes, while at No. 88 Charles Mabley,
a tailor; William Kenwood, a tailor;
and T. Lambert, a bootmaker, since
dead, did business.
Mabley s brothers were in business in
the St. Lawrence block, on King street |
east, and one of them subsequently (
migrated to Detroit, where he built up
a colossal business. He died a few years j
ago, after accumulating great wealth.
His trade^ in Toronto was a few thou
sands yearly. In Detroit it was consid er-
aoly over a minion a jcttr.
At No. 881-2 Merryfield & Shannon
were bootmakers. The first named was
subsequently for many years in the south
Btore of the Cameron block, on the west
side of Yongc, north of Queen. At No.
90 Thomas Robinson was a clothier and
dry goods man. One door north was the
shop of N. C. Love, the druggist, given
in the directory as No. 88, but it must i
have been No. 92. Mr. Love was
a prominent man in business and
In municipal politics. He was an j
alderman of the city for years, I
was one always on the side of economy i
and was noted for his business integrity
and continuous watching of the interests
of the city. It was in his shop, when on
the south-east corner of Yonge and Rich
mond streets, at a later period, that the
motion wae drawn up, based on the sug
gestion of The Telegram, that the re
porters be admitted to the committees
of the City Council.
At No. 94, John Poison, a bootmaker,
who died on his farm at Weston, and
John Heron, a dry goods man, carried
on business, and the last shop in this-
row, that of William Howard, the
grocer. All this row, from Shaw s store,
was erected for various owners by Mr.
Joseph Sheard, the architect.
Then came the well known ouilding,
with its large yard, known as the Bay
Horse Hotel, kept by Thomas Best. This
waa a house built in the early forties
and kept by David Lackie, who wae suc
ceeded by Thomas Elgie, and then by
Thos. Best, and in turn by Thomas Best,
jr., and finally to Brelsford. The Bay
Horse Hotel and other Tmildmg-; ha,ve
made way for the Yonge street arcade,
but the buildings to the north and south
are not much changed from those of
1856. The watch establishment of E. M.
Morphy wae one door north of the Bay
Horse.
At No. 100 Nudel & Acres had a dry
goods store. Mr. Nudel (J. T.) was after
wards Clerk of the Police Court. Nudel
& Acres succeeded James & William
McDonald in No. 79 Yonge street, and
were in turn succeeded by a Mr. Wylie,
now an insurance agent or inspector. At
No. 102 J. Gardner was a grocer. This
gentleman was afterwards Capt. Gardner,
of the Highland Company. At No. 104 the
late A. M. Smith carried on an extensive
business in the same line. Mr. Smith was
subsequently the senior partner of the
firm of Smith & Keighley, on the north
side of Wellington stre A t, near Yonge,
and on the south side of Front street. He
accumulated large wealth and was pro
minent in mercantile, insurance
and banking circles. He died last year
(1895) at an advanced age, and by his
death Toronto lost a leading man and
a useful citizen.
At No. 106 was the establishment of
J. Cox, a dry goods dealer, and in the
same building W. B. Clark, a commission,
agent. At No. 108 were Charles & Co.,
grocers, and at the south-east corner of
Yonge and "Richmond streets, Shapter &
Coombe, the druggists, a shop that was
efterjwards occupied by N. C. Love iu
the seme business. >
Prior to Shnptor air! Coombe s occu
pation, one He^iry J. Ease, formerly a
clerk with a Mr. Bettridge, carried on
a drug business in this corner until 1862.
Mr. Bettridge, a brother of the vener
able William Bettridge, so long rec
tor of Woodstock, Ontario, was in his
business methods a rigid disciplinarian.
Reserved, too, in hie deportment with his
employes and his partners, he may in
this as also some other features be char
acterized ae a typical English trades
man. Mr. Bettridge insisted upon his
clerks, who, as not then unusual, lodged
upon his premises, reporting themselves

ception of Saturday, when, as late clos
ing obtained, no egress in the evening
was practical under his regulations. After
the closing hour on Saturdays his ap-
|.reD.tices services were availed of for
the treatment of his counter tops with
a coating of linseed oil and beeswax.
This, supplemented by a liberal expen
diture of elbow grease, imparted in the
course of time a rich tone to those
portions of his shop fittings, much more,
it is surmised toi Mr.Bettridge s satisfac
tion and that of a few natty ooserviers,.
than to the appreciation of the man
ipulators.
At the north-east corner of Yonge and
Queen streets not embraced in the text
Alexander Henderson conducted a store
(dry goods and grocery) for some years.
Mr. John Rowland succeeded Mr. Hender
son in the premises instanced, and nt
least for several years (if not from the
commencement) confined himself to the
dry goods trade.
The picture does not give the build
ings north of this to Queen street, but
the shops were occupied, at No. 112, by
Frank Bethell & Sons, the grocers; No.
114 by William Hill, a dry goods dealer.
These were at the north-east corner of
Tonge and Richmond, and with J.
R. Armstrong & Co., the founders, alt
No. 116, occupied the present Bite of the
Confederation Life Building. At No. 118
was the Globe Hotel, kept in earlier years
by Thomas Elgie, but in 1856 by Samuel
Thompson. It is now the Tremont House,
although after the building of the Tonge
Street Arcade the Bay Horse was re
moved to this building. In an upper
room in the north portion of this build
ing was for years the Oddfellows Hall.
At No. 120 was Thomas Robinson, a bar
ber, a pleasant, quick-talking English
man, who, it was said, could shave the
upper lip of seven men in five minutes.
At No. 122 was William Hogg, the gro
cer, and at No. 124 Joseph Hodgson, a
fine specimen of an Englishman, a tin
smith, who did an extensive trade. At
the south-east corner of Tonge and Queen
streets was the store of Andrew Mc-
Glashan & Co., who had a tannery on
Tonge street, at Tork Mills, leading
leather merchants, and in the upper part
of the building James Dove, Clerk, Dunn,
a tailor, and Hugh 0. Thomson, the cor

Agriculture.
CHAPTER XXV11I.
THE MARKET_ BLOCK.
"The City Bulldlngs"-A Row of Red Brick
Shops That Less Than Fifty Years ago wu.
the Retail Dry Goods Centre of Toronto.
The picture in this landmark was taken
in 1872, and the names on the signs of
the shops will be familiar to a large
number of citizens who to-day pass along
the south side of King street east. This
block is built upon leasehold property be
longing to the corporation of Toronto,
and extends from Church to West Market
streets, and from King to Colborne
streets. The buildings are a row of red
brick, erected between 1836 and 1840.
Owing to the fact that between 1834
1856 there are no street keys in the di
rectories issued, it is impossible to give
the exact location of the shops and stores
referred to in the landmark at an earlier
date than 1856. In the latter year,
which we deal with first, at the south
east corner of King and Church streets,
G. S. Bowes was an importer of dry
goods. One door east, at No. 74, William
Jamieson was also in dry goods, and at
No. 76, the third door from the corner,
Joseph Rogers, the pioneer hatter and
furrier of Tork, had his shop. Mr. Rogers
was in business in Toronto about 1817
in the same locality. At No. 80 George
Longman was an importer of dry goods,
and at No. 82 Dallas & Hamilton were
in the same line. John Tully, the archi
tect, brother of Kivas Tully, had an of
fice over No. 82. At No. 84 E. Cooper
was in dry goods, and John Mulholland
& Co. were earthenware dealers. At No.
88 W. H. Rowe was in boots and shoes,
and in the eastern half of the shop was
Brown & McCrosson s establishment, the
latter gentleman, Mr. Thomas McCrosson,
now being the superintendent of the peni
tentiary at Penetanguisheue. At No. 89
E. Crawford was in millinery, and at No.
90 Francis O Dea was a clothier. Next
door east of O Dea s were " The City
Buildings," a row first built on this
ground by the corporation. No. 92 was
occupied by Thomas Hoskins, importer of
dry goods, and the eastern part of the
shop by James H. Rogers, the hatter, son
of Mr. Joseph Rogers. Mr. J. H. Rogers is
now at the corner of Church street. At No.
94 J. M. Campbell was in dry goods.
At No. 96 W. B. Hamilton was in mer
chant tailoring, and at No. 98 Robert
W. Champion was a hardware dealer,
and in the same building Wm. Langley,
manufactured boots and shoes. At No.
100 R. Hastings had a retail dry good*
establishment, and at No. 102 J. Hut
chison was in boots and shoes, and in the
eastern half of the same number Wil-

Ham Macfie had a fashionable dry goods
etore. At the corner a well-known man,
Walter McFarlaue. was also in retail dry
goods. Messrs. Macfie aiid McFarlaue
were both Scotchmen and popular with
a large Scotch colony in Toronto in those
days. Mrs. Baldwin Jackes, of St. Joseph
street, is a daughter of Mr. Macfie. Mr.
Walter McFarlaue afterwards went to
the county of Huron, where he died some
years ago.
In 1866 No. 103, the third store from
the corner, was occupied by J. H. Rogers,
No. 105 at the corner, and No. 107, the
second shop, being vacant. The fourth
shop was No. Ill, that of McCrossoii &
Co., hatters. In the upper floor of this
building, No. 117, was E. J. IPalmer, the
photographer, and W. Hines, also
in that business. iPalmer was a
pioneer in his line. He was the first
man in Toronto to introduce pho
tography and had the ruai of the best
business in the city. He subsequently
went into the trade of photographers
supplies, and was succeeded in business
on King street near Youge by Mr. J. B.
Hay, now an official of the City Hall,
and in his time an expert at his work.
The tall building. No. 119, was the large
retail house of G. & J. W. Cor, enterpris
ing dry goods men, and the largest
newspaper advertisers of the period. At
No. 32.3 James H. Jones sold fruit, and
on a Saturday night in the peach season
this lucioiis fruit was, after nine o clock,
offered at twelve and a half cents a
basket, for, as Mr. Jones said, " It won t
keep over Sunday." A hundred peaches
for an English six pence was not bad
value.
In 1872, the year that the photograph
from which this sketch is made, the
south-east corner of Church and King,
No. 105, was occupied by R. J. Hunter
& Co., in dr3^ goods. It is now the mart
of J. H. Rogers, the furrier. The old firm
of Crowther & Till, the barristers, had
offices in the first floor of this building.
In No. 107 A. Blachford sold boots and
hoes. Neither of these two stores is
in the picture, the first shop shown being
that of James H. Eogersi, the hatter and
furrier, No. 109. Mr. Joseph Rogers,
father of J. H. Rogers, was in business in
this locality about sixty years anterior to
1872. At No. Ill Thos. McCrosson, the
batter, had his store. McCrosson went
out of business a few years later.
From Nos. 115 to 121 G. & J. W. Cos
had a large dry goods house. In their
day the Messrs. Cox were the largest
newspaper advertisers in Toronto. In
the top floor of this bulding was the
Btudio of Eli J. Palmer, photographer in
Toronto. He was succeeded a few years
later by J. B. Hay, now an official in
the City Hall. The shop No. 125, was
that of James Lane & Co., boot and shoe
dealers, and No. 127 was occupied by E.
Pearson in dry goods. George S. Sack-
man, the tailor, occupied No. 127, and H.
Caldwell, the hatter, was at No. 129.
The stores east from those occupied by
Messrs. Cox were double shops divided.
Nos. 137-139 comprised the fur and hat
store of Mr. C. K. Rogers, a son of Mr.
Joseph Rogers and brother of J. H.
Rogers. Messrs. P. & N. Melady were in
dry goods and subsequently conducted an
auction business in that branch of trade.
No. 145 was the emporium of J. Foster
& Son, a hardware house, on this site and
in this block for many years. In No.
147 C. Martin & Co. were tailors, and at
No. 149 J. Barnes dealt in boots aoid
shoes, while at No. 151, Coun & Alison
were tailo-s and the corner ehop, No.
153, was vacant. This shop is now occu
pied by C. Martin & Co., tailors aiid
dealers in ready made clothing. This
brings us to West Market square, and on
the east side is the St. Lawrence build
ings, with Lyman Bros., as druggists in
the west wing of the building, for the
lower part of the wing was in one shop.
The centre had the main doorway of the
hall and the entrance to the arcade,
while in the east wing was a narrow
shop where books and stationery were
sold by Magnus Shewan, an Orkney man.
with plenty of energy. Shaver & Bell had
a dry goods shop in the store east of
Shewan s, and the Toronto Tea Store wan
on the south-west corner of East Mar
ket square, a street which is really a
continuation south of Jarvis street.
In the St. Lawrence Hall building, now
occupied ou the first floor by the Medi
cal Health office and the Park Commis
sioner s office, was and is on the second
floor a fine hall, which, twenty years ago
was the best in Toronto. The best art

eerned. To secure at all times attention
to the calls of customers, the staff was
divided into two detachments, known as
the first and second parties, these weekly
alternating. Mr. Dow, as "became the
manager, was invariably of the first
party, and occupied the seat of honour.
In the cour&e of a repast Mr. Dow was
scarcely, if ever, observed to hazard a
remark, except on the occasion of one
of Mr. Laurie s visits. Protracted silence
becoming at times trying to young
blood, it was in some instances rudely
broken by a peal of laughter, followed
by a general stampede ; the disturbance
perhaps incited through a ludicrous ges
ture of some one at table, or the refrain
from a negro melody in the distance on
the part of another, who, securing re
pletion in advance of his com
panions, had failed to stand upon
the "order of his going." A clerk who
had made himself conspicuous by re
peated frivolities at table -was, by sen
tence of the manager, relegated to the
kitchen for his fare during a fortnight.
As the cook, however, a buxom lassie,
bJappened to be good-looking as well as
good natured, the punishment, notwith
standing the fact of its registration in
the journal, could scarcely be deemed
penitential. Tie genius of the rising
generation at the period under review
teems to have been more "ductile to
merriment" than obtains in our matter
of fact era, and practical joking, some
of it decidedly (sensational, was not in
frequent in the best regulated institu

The Bank of England enjoys the secur
ity incident to the possession of an

the Laurie establishment during the re
bellion of 1837 was provided by the Gov
ernment with a full supply of flint locks
upplemeuted by the requisite ammuni
tion and accoutrements.
Mr. Laurie s junior hands were gen
erally scions of respectable families, and
frequently pupils of Mr. John Boyd, the
principal of the celebrated Bay street
academy, located immediately fto the
south of the office of The Evening Tele
gram. It was customary for Mr. Boyd,
paj-ticularly in the cause of parents in
straitened circumstances, or those of
comparatively short residence 5n the
city, to practice "the luxury of doing

battle of life to the good offices of that
gentleman.
No porter being in the employ of Mr.
Laurie the swesping of the store.- clean
ing of windows, handling of ponderous
shutters, shovelling of snow with de
livery of parcels fell to the lot of the
two youngest assistants, and those
duties were considered sufficiently oner
ous, withput attention to the item oi
foot wear, other than that appertaining
to their own toilet. An unwritten dom2s-
tic enactment, as well as a feeling of
iudepaudeuce, necessitated the perform
ance of the latter service by the
denizens of the establishment, each for
himself inclusive, from the manager down
wards. The burnishing of boots was per
formed in the attic, and on a certain
occasion the two youngest hands chanced
to enter that department together for an
application of Day and Martin to their
pedal coverings, as usual prior to re
tiring for the night. The process had
just commenced when the boys were con
fronted by the arrival of half a dozen
figures attired in white sheets, and gar
nished with cross-belts {and cartouche
boxes, each carrying a large (musket.
The fcquad, obedient to command,
promptly grounded arms, fixed bayoneta
and cocked their piecee. They had, how
ever, barely time to prepare for a click of
the triggers, ere the assistant manager,
who had heard the racket, appeared on
deck, his presence resulting in a hurried
scamper of the force, some to the dark
recesses of the loft, and others through
a trap to the icy roof, where the latter,
slipping from one level to another, only
saved their lives by means of a heavy
ladder, which they succeeded in clutching
at the eave in their perilous descent.

Now, strictly speaking, a barque is a
three-masted vessel, square rigged on the
fore and main mast-* and with fore-and-
aft mizzen, and as the vessel in question
has but two masts and is fore-and-aft
rigged throughout, it is difficult to say
what ground there is for calling her a
barque. But on her ettrn is seen in
white letters "Barque Swallow, of Port
Credit," and it was this curious name
which caused me to make enquiries -ibout
the vessel, and to get her history, which

Of the many vessels of which the stoue

the most interesting is a white stone-

known to the older vessel men arouud
Toronto, bought this &aud scow, t.ud
fitteu her out as a stone-hooker. He
had her decked over, lengthened her top-
sides, and rigged her as a schooner,
and r.s he was a salt water tar
of th old school, and so naturally par

sel a square fore-topsail; and it was
on this slight pretext that he called
her the "Barquj Swallow," just as an
other stone-hooker which formerly had
a square topsail is called the "Brig
Rover. All the Swallow s blocks were
painted a bright pink colour, and she
was as fine looking a stone-hooker as
ever carried stoae to Toronto.

On the uppsr flat of the old Adelaide
street court house is a series of small
rooms used as storage place for the
official documents of the various
County Courts, sheriffs and bailiffs
papers, and all the odds and ends re
presenting the accumulation of many
years. Occasionally these dust-laden
mouldy smeliiag and spider woven
rooms are opened, i>ut not often.
Recently the cotnpanis^ insuring the

I old documents and books must be safe-
| ly enclosed in boxes. Housekeeper Hull s
men have attacked the well-nigh for-
! gotten rooms end fought their way
, through a mass of debris, document-
| ary and otherwise, and brought the
i jumble into some sort of order.
Mr. Robertson, of the County Court
Clerk s office, has been delving among
the thousands of old documents in one
i of the little rooms and unearthed some
interesting relics. Here is a literal
copy of a town clerk s record of a
town meeting held at Joseph Hewett s
Inn, Newmarket, January 6th, 1834:
"I suppos that the may thinck it verry

On the back of the document is this:
"Proceedings of a Townmeeting For
the Clerk of the Pece Whitchurch."
A JN orth GwiTlimbury town meeting
held in 1830 decreed that fences "must
i be five feet nigh, well proportioned,

they may be free commoners. Boars

Among the papers are assessment
rolls of various municipalities for 1818,

LAKE ONTARIO IN 1757.
Prmch Map or the Luke by a Military Gen-
crnpher at Fort Frontenac, Cntaraqni,
(Kingston) The French and English Fleets
Among the late finds of old documents
and drawings, perhaps the one that re
lates to this landmark, or, rather, "lake-
mark," is the most important, in that
it not only gives a. map of Lake Ontario
in 1757, but also a picture of the Eng
lish and French fleets on the lake at that
period. The sketch is from a photograph
of the original hand-made drawing and
picture in a portfolio in the King s Lib
rary in the British Museum in London.
The picture of the fleets is the first
known picture of vessels on Lake Ontario,
and, although the originals have been in
the museum for a century, and, no doubt,
have been examined by many, yet it fell
to the lot of a Torontouiau to find this
rare picture and the accompanying map.
The latter is as accurate as any of the
period, and, now that it is for the first
time re-published, will prove a valuable
addition to the literature that has al
ready been collected concerning Toronto,
Lake Ontario, and the country surround
ing the lake.
The first paragraph is the title in the
left-hand corner of the map. Each name
on the map has been translated, and the
place located, so that readers of to-day
can at once become familiar with the
locality.

south shore to the place of starting.
Fort Niaugara. The spelling show?
that Mr. de la Broquerie followed no rule
of orthography, as did many of his con
temporaries.
P. a Mascoutin should foe Pointe aux
Mascoutias. That nation was also called
" Nation du Feu " by the French; and
Astistaeronons by the Iroquois, which
means the same thing : " The men of the

no name.

command the navigation of the St. Law
rence on those two points.
Batture de Niaugara The shallow
water of the Niagara. This refers to the
well known shoal at the mouth of the
river.
Point du Moralle. Perhaps Pointe de
Montreal, (though not referring to the
island or city of that name),. Some of
the French-Canadians have always been
j in the habit of saying " Moral " for
Montreal, a contraction of the syllables.
Marais a la Biche Roe-buck swamp.
Le greud Marais should be le grand
Marais the great marsh.
The bay of Burlington is marked " Lac

trout lake.
Fond du Lac was so called about 167Q,
at a time when the Mississaguas had a
village there.
| R. des Deux Follie. Two Follies ^ If so,

to the words "euforcem -nts," "coins,"
"recoius," "denteltares," echaucrures." It
was the French name of part of the Bay
of Quinte.
Pte Latravarse should be spelled
"Poiute de la Traverse." It means the
point where they cross the water to

not refer to the present Point Traverse.

by La Salle in 1679. On the map of 1680
that island is shown opposite the bay
marked Toncoganignon, the same as
Tonaguignon of the map of La Broquerie*
now Amherst Island.
Between Grande Anse and Fort Fron-
tenac, the map of 1680 mentions Poiute
Dalouue, after the name of Pierre Guig-
uard, alias d Olouue or Dalouue, who
appears to have been an associate of La
galle.
He aux Cochons (now Garden Island)
was given by La Salle about the year
1676 to Jacques Cauchois (corruption :
Cauchon, Cochons, pigs), who was a na
tive of Rouen (1652), the birthplace of
La Salle. Cauchois arrived at Fort Fron-
tenac with La Salle in 1675, and re
mained with him until 1684, when he
married and settled in Montreal, whilst
La Salle went to the Gulf of Mexico.
Between Tonty and Cauchois lies an
island given to Francois Dauphin, alias
Laforet, by La Salle in 1679. Laforet,
Tonty, Cauchois, deserve to be men

Ho au Chevreuil, now Carieton Island,
south of Grand Isle, is marked Isle a la

Galette is biscuit, cake or "hard tack."
Poiute de Galette is now the small cape
of Cape Vincent.
The two small islands without names
on La Broquerie map\, below Fort Frou.-

Howe Island and Garden Island.
Still below these islands a river which
flaws into the St. Lawrence is styled

in the summer of 1756 he was sent, with
de Lery to Fort Frouteuac, to build the

lu 1756, early in the spring, at Fort
Frouteuac, the French built t o barges,
one for 12 guns, the other for 16. They
cruised on Lake Ontario under the com
mand of Pierre Boucher de la Broquerie
and Hyppolite Pepin-Laforce, who suc
ceeded in sinking some of the small ves
sels belonging to the English, and ob
ligee the others to remain in Chouaguen
River. (Ferlaud : Cours d Histoire du
Canada, 11,541.)
A report published in tie collection
printed by the Quebec Legislature in 1885
(IV. 37) states the following facts :
"Our small squadron which is on Laki 1
Ontario and is five ships strong, having
met the English squadron, ten ship
strong, has fought a battle. We took tl e
English admiral, put the rest of the ship.-s
to flight and drove two of their vessels
ashore under full sail near Fort Choua
guen."
Edmund Falgairolle, in "Moutcalm Be
fore Posterity," says (p. 64) that a
French detachment had been posted on
the lake, putting at its -dis
posal " a little fleet destined
to disturb the English barques."
M. de Villiere had the cleverness to hide
himself one day behind some clumps of
trees, and to harass by the musketry ol
liis weak trcop the frail craft of the
etuemy. The Indians whom he had under
his orders on this occasion were of a re
markable and almost foolhardy energy.
At the moment when the English vessels.
surprised by this unforeseen attack, wish
ed to escape by flight from the fire of
our foldiers, the Indians threw themselves
into the water, pursued them by swim-
laiug, and reached some of them when
they sank. This skirmish cost the lives
of several English soldiers, and enabled
us to make seine prisoners. It had one
great effect, that of restoring the morale
of our Indians."
On the 4th August, 1756, Montcalm left
Fort Fronteuac with a section of his
>iug, and encamped on the shores
o f Niaoure Bay Sackett s Harbour-
where the Marquis of Vaudreuii had ap
pointed the rendezvous of the troops. (Fe -
land II., 541.)
Ferland (11.553) remarks that Mont-
calm, having taken Oswego, the great
abundance of ammunition and provisions
found in that place, and in addition the
British fleet armed to maintain the
supremacy on the lake, all fell into the
handc of the French.
The above i* enough to show that there
were armed vessels on Lake Ontario the
year of the taking of Chouagueu.
L i Broquerie died in 1762, at Boucher-
ville. His descendants are living amongst
us. They are all good and intelligent
Canadians.
Laforce fought again on the lakes in
1776-82, and lived to a bright old age.
Sir Hector Langevin is his great-grand
son by his mother s side.
Extract from Journal of Occurrences,
1755-6 :
"The navigation of Lake Ontario is an
object of consequence and we have four
vessels on it. The largest of these carry
fourteen 12-potini!ers. The English have
some craft on it also."
June 12, 1756, Moutcalm to D Argens-
son :
"The navigation of Lake Ontario is
most important. The English have thie:
sloops with some three and five pounders.
They are building two, which, it is re
ported, will be of twenty gnus. We have
four vessels, one of which carries tweidy
four and six pounders and eighty men v
the others have forty men and ten four
ponuders."
1757, Rev. Claude G. Cocquant to his
brother :
"Our little fleet on Laki Ontario, in
number about five vessels, having met
the English fleet, amounting to ten, gave
them bnttle. We have taken the English
admiral. Afterwards we put tie others
to flight and obliged two to run ashore
with all sails set."
1758, August 27, Dorel to Marquis de
Belle Isle, giving account of the destruc
tion of Fort Froutenac :
"No precaiition was taken with our
navy. The English, mor^ caieful than we,
have burnt it, with the exception of two
20 gun brigs, which they have pieserved."

ply was exhausted, until two in
teresting official documents were
found, concerning the old York Fort,
from 1802-4. The first ia a letter
from R. II. Bruyeres, Capt. Royal En-
giueers, who had charge of the work in
connection with the erection of the fort.
The Old Fort was originally erected
about 1797. There were built at that
time seven officers huts, two small huts
for an hospital, one for a bake-house
and one for a canteen ; there was also
a blockhouse. The seven huts alluded
to! were on the east side of the fort, and
were demolished about twenty-five years
ago. The blockhouse alluded to is the
one that stands near the east entrance
of the Old Fort. The blockhouse in the
town of York stood at the Don river.
These buildings, except the huts that
stood on the left hand side of the east
entrance to the Old Fort were not de
stroyed in the war of 1812, but the
blockhouse and other buildings in the
fort were burned. These included the
magazine, the carriage and engine shed
and the storehouse for provisions for
the troops and for the Indians. In 1797
the huts referred to in the letter were
those in the immediate west side of the
Garrison Creek. The letter referring to
these is dated 12th September, 1802.
The second letter is dated 2nd January,
1804, and is from Gother Mann, Colonel,
commanding the Koyal Engineers. He
was we l known to residents of 1797-1804.
Prior to his departure for England in
July of 1804 he wrote to the military
authorities with regard to the erection
el public buildings in York and Upper
Canada. In 1804 the log frame covered
buildings at the foot of Berkeley street
were u?ed by the Legislature. These
were burned in 1812. Plans were then
submitted for a brick structure for the
Legislative requirements as well as for
the official residents. These plans had
been given in Vol. I. of the Landmarks,
but the buildings according to thesa de
signs were never "built. Tihere dees not
seem to be ai^y further reference to the
ca-rying out of the suggestions of Gother
Maun. The red brick buildings, an ac
count of which is given in Vol. I., were
erected in 1816 after the war, and were
burned down in 1824, and in 1828-29 the
Parliament buildings on Front street
were erected.
The correspondence reads :

quarters for officers and men, also the

Sir, The short time I have to remain
in this country and the imperfect infor
mation I have on the subject of the public
buildings in contemplation to be erected
at York, in Upper Canada, together with
my want of experience as to the accom
modations required in buildings of this
sort, are circumstances which render it
impossible, as I have already stated in
a former letter, to comply with Lieuten
ant-General Hunter s request that I
would furnish mm with the plans or de
signs far these buildings and the estim
ate of their probable expense. To dothi-<
would require considerable time and con
sideration, and more knowledge in the
details of what is necessary, than I ar-
possessed of; I therefore cannot iultr.-

with the requisite accuracy and confi
dence what it would be right to propose.
Nevertheless, as it is still the Lieuten
ant-General s wih that I should at least
give him some outline of what in my
opinion may be requisite, and being de
sirous to the utmost of my power to as
sist in any way the public service, I shall
endeavour on general principles to con
vey some idea of the probable expense,
premising however that much accuracy
is not to be looked for, and that too much
confidence ought not therefore to be
placed in my calculations.
I shall suppose that the buildings are
to be" constructed plain, substantial, and
of durable materials, the walls of stone
and the arches of brick, that every pre
caution is to be taken to guard them as
far as possible from accidents of fire, that
sufficient vaults or arched rooms, per
fectly secure and dry, are to be made
to the offices requiring them, for the de
posit of puLlie records of every description,
that the buildings are to be uniform and
neat Lut without the expense of ornaments
and that apartments will be required
for the following services, viz.: Legis
lative and Executive Councils, House of
Assembly, Court of King s Bench and
Quarter Sessions, and the proper offices
to each, with offices for the Secretary
of the Province, Surveyor-General and
Auditor for Patents of Laud. Judging
in the best manner I am able of the
extent of room necessary for these pur
poses, I should conceive that a build
ing not less than from 270 to 300 feet
long and from 30 to 40 feet broad will
be requisite.
Whether this shall be disposed in one
entire line or with wings will make no
material difference in the expense, and
upon a due consideration of the price
of workmanship and materials in Upper
Canada, I am of opinion that such a
building will cost about 16,800 cur
rency, or 15,120 sterling, and that
with proper attention to arrangement
and economy this sum may be sufficient.
I have now, sir, only to express my re
gret in not being able to furnish Lieut.
General Hunter with more complete and
satisfactory information.
I have the honour to be, sir,
Your most obedient humble servant,

CHAPTER XXXV.
VIEW OF YORK (TORONTO) IN 1820-
Front St. From tbe Garrison on the West,
East to the Market ami Along Palace St.
to Parliament Buildings 181C-24 at Don.
One of the most interesting of the early
views of the town of York, now Toronto,
is an oil painting, made by Mr. Irving,
a Scotch artist, who, prior to 1821, was
a visitor in York and a guest of tbe
late Hon. George Cruickshank, who re
sided at the north-east corner of Front
and Peter streets. No views have been
found of the entire front of the town of
York prior to 1821, and this fact en
hances the value of Mr. Irving s wiork.
Mrs. Simcoe made a small sketch of the
Garrison or Old Fort, as in 1796, with
a bit of the harbour adjacent to the
fort, and in 1803 an English officer made
a drawing of the east end of Palace
street, now called Front street, from
the north-west corner of what is now
West Market or Jarvis street, ta with
in a few feet of the Dion river. Loosing
gives the blockhouse at the Don in
1800-13, with a few of the houses in
the neighbourhood of Palace street. In
1820 Mr. Irving made an oil painting
from a poiut on the Island near the
lighthouse, which ^ives an absolutely
correct and artistic view, with the lo
cations of all the houses on Front street
from a hundred yards west of the Old
Fort and Garrison to the second Par
liament buildings, which stood in 1
24 on the site of the jail, built in 1841,
at the east end of what was then Palace
street, but what is now Front street.
The site is now occupied by the Gas Com
pany. The buildings in Irving s sketch
are given with so much detail as i.o be
recognizable, and it is evident that the
arti t, before finishing his oil, strolled,
pencil and pad in hand, and made an
outline of the buildings that he pro-
po ed to show in his painting.
The pen and ink sketch given with this
laudmirk is made, through the courtesy
| of Ms. Stephen Heward, of Peter street,
1 from the orig nal oil, by her son, Mr.
Stephen Heward, the architect, a ^rand-
sou of the Into Mr. Cruickshank. The
artist hs skilfully traced the oil paint
ing, and every building shown is :i8 in
the orig nal. The proof of the accuracy
of Mr. Irvine s oil is shown in Mr. He-
ward s sketch, for some of the build
ings (riven -uch ^s the Old Fort, -vest
of Bathurst street; the Cruickshank
house, north-east corner of Front and
Peter; the Greenland Fishery tavern,

tage, where the Metropolitan church now
lauds, are familiar to many people in
[Toronto of to-day. The origin il oil
gives the Ivlaud, the lighthouse -md
the bay but for the purposes of re
production the foreground of the pic
ture has been omitted, so as to give a
better and closer view of the old town.
.Where any doubt existed a* to the
location of the buildings or the n^mes
of owners or residents, careful .inquiry-
has been mude amongst old residents,
such as Mr. William Helliwell, of High
land Creek, who arrived in Toronto in
1818, and also from Mrs. Charles Sey
mour, a daughter of Dr. Grant Powell,
a resident from 1811. Mrs. Seymour was
horn in 1806, and came with her father
to Toronto in 1811. Her memory of the
capture of Toronto by the Americans,
of the burning of the first Parli im>nt
Build ngs on the site of the old jail,
and her recollection of the residents of
the entire front of the city and every
house from 1811 to 1860 is perfect. In
an interview at Ottawa Mrs. Seymour,
now (1898) ninety years of age, recount
ed to the writer the names and loca
tions of all the houses on Front street,
with the names of the. residents, prior
to 1820, from the Old Fort to the Don.
The key given the location jf th
houses on not only Front street, which
ran from the garrison on the west to
the north-east corner of what is now
Front and East Market square, which
in the early d r iys was the north-east
corner of East Mnrket s.quare, a con
junction of New (Nelson) (Jarvis) street
and Palace (Front) street.
The key alw> gives the losation of houses
on Market street, now known as Welling
ton street, for these houses could be seen
from the bay, there being then but few
houses between the present Front street
and Market street, and in some places the
houses on Krng street could be seen from
the bay front.
The key commences with No. 1 west of
the Fort, and the reader is taken by way
of Front street, east to the Parliament
buildings then standing (1820), on the
Bite of the old jail, at the south end of
Berkeley street.
No. 1. Commencing at the west end
there is shown as No. 1 a house situated
a hundred yards west of the western gate
of the Old Fort, on the embaTilcment above
the shore. The house, a frame originally
and afterwards roughcast, faced the
north. It was removed in the seventies.
It was occupied by Mr. I>uffy, a master at
Upper Canada College. It was built
about 1818, and occupied by Mr. Duffy
in 1825.
No. 2. The Old Fort at the west side
: of what was formerly known as the Gar
rison Creek, was built in 1790, and was
burnt, with the exception of eome log
houses at the east end of the grounds,
in 1813. The Fort was re-built in 1816.
The row of three houses shown with three
j chimneys each were of wood and are
standing this day (1896). The house with
the cottage roof, two chimneys and dor
mer windows, was the officers quarters
and of red brick. This was burnt in 1830.
The block house shown is the one near
est the east entrance to the Fort and
still staiidiug. The depression in the
j ground east of th block house is the low
ground through which the Garrison Creek
flowed, emptying into the bay at the
King s (Queen s) wharf. From 1820 to
j 1860 a wooden bridge some forty or fifty
i feet long joined the east and west sides
of the creek.
The first building east of the Garriscvn
Creek, not numbered, i-s apparently a oue-
torey building, with one chimney, occu
pied about the site of the red brick houtee
; built by the Hon. J. II. Dunn, receiver-
general of Upper Canada, and afterwards
occupied by Mr. (Sir) D. L. Macpherspni
No one has yet been able to identify the
etraet site or the resident of the building
shown in 1919. The Massey works now
occupy the ground. The small building
immediately to the welst. of this, also
unnumbered, was a tavern, which stood
on the< north side of Front street, at the
liorthreast corner of what is now Bath-
urst. It was long frequented by the sol-
! dieris stationed in the fort. It was known
for years as the Kescue Inn, and had a
sign descriptive of a mother rescuing
her child from an eagle s nest in the
j mountains.
Walking further east, there are three
I houses before coming to Peter street (No.
j 5). The occupants of these houses are
uni^nofwn.
No. 6 is Peter street, which was in 1820
th western limit of the town. This
i street ran north from Front street to
i Queen.
No. 6. This was the residence of the
Hon. George Cruickshank, at the north
east corner of Front and Peter streets.
The drawing shows the building before
the new residence was erected in 1823-4.
The old house was removed to the back of
the lot, and the new house, given in
another Landmark in Volume III., erected
on the corner. The buildiug was removed
in 1860, and the ground is now vacant.
No. 7. A few yards to the east of the
Cruicki~(hank house was the residence of
John Beikie, who was at oue time sheriff
of York, and also clerk of the Executive
Council of the Provincial Government of
94
LANDMARKS OF TORONTO.
Upper Canada. This house stood where
Windsor street now opens into Front.
No. 8. The building on the shore was
the military storehouse, which was after
wards lengthened and enlarged, and
tood on the srte up to 1858, when the
Esplanade improvements were made.
No. 9. Behind the ship and scarcely vis
ible is the outline of the Halfway House
or tavern, which stood about ninety feet
west of the corner of John street, on
Front. When originally built it was occu
pied by officers of the garrison as quar
ters, but finally it bscanie a tavern,
which was resorted to by the soldiers on
their way to and from the town, and was
appropriately called " The Halfway
House." It occupied the site of 294
Front street.
No. 10. This was Sergeant Eskerlioi s
house, which stood directly east of the
Halfway House. Eskerlin was an issuer
or official of the commissariat depart
ment. It was on the site of No. 286
Front street west.
No. 11. The large building on the north
west corner of Front and John, now No.
284, was the Greenland Foohery tavern,
Which stands to-day as in 1820. The
cottage, No. 8 John street, in rear of
this house, which for many years was
occupied by Edward Wright, who was
the proprietor of the Greenland Fishery
tavern, was the first building erected
in 1817. The large building at the corner
was erected in 1819, and not in 1825, as
stated in Vol. I., p. 48, Landmarks,
No. 12 shows the line of John street,
which in those days ran from Front
up to Queen street. At the north end
of John street on Queen was the en
trance to the Grange, the property cf
Mr. Boultou. There were two large gates
on the north side oJ Queen street, tt
its junction with John street. John
street was subsequently extended north
to the present gates of the Grange.
No. 18 shows the house of Mr. Itiley,
on Market street, now known as Welling
ton street. There were no homes in 1820
between John and Graves (Simcoe)
streets, where the third Parliament
Buildings stand, so that from i ront
street one could clearly see the houses
on Market street. This house was erect-
Ed in 1815. It is given in the list of
that year as Riley s house, and its site
was Nos. 264-66 Wellington street west.
No. 14 shows a culvert on the shore,
about 150 feet west of the line of Graves
street. This was called Russell s Creek,
which ran from the north-west part of
the town across the now Spidina
avenue, Beverley street, through Queen
a hundred feet west of John, through
the Macdonald property, between New-
! gate (Richmond) street and Hospital
I (Adelaide) street, through Upper Canada
i Co leg? plfiy-PTGUiids and the Government
! House grounds, east of the present Dor-
j set street, finding an exit into the bay
I in front of the east end of the grounds
j of the Parliament Buildings on Front
street.
No. 15 is the house of Mr. George Rid-
out, a two storey roughcast dwelling on
Market street, known in later years as
Dorset HCUSP, the site being on the north
west corner of the modern Dorset street
and Market (Wellington) street. The
front part of the site is now No. 250
Wellington street west.
No. 16. Elmsley House, on the south
west corner of King and Graves (Simcoe)
street. It was in 1804-16 the residence
cf Chief Justice Elmsley, and about 1816
used as the Government house. It was
partly brick, Ing and roughcast. It was
burned about 30 years ago and the pre
sent Government house was erected.
No. 17. (Graves) Siincoe street, which
was originally named after John Graves
Simcoe, ran from Front street to Queen
street, and subsequently (about 1870),
William street, which ran from Queen
street north, almost in a direct line with
Simeoe, was changed to Simcoe, so that
north to Erskine Presbyterian church is
known as Simcoe street.
No. 18. Thi-i was the red brick residence
of Bishop Strachan on Front street, be
tween Simcoe and York streets. It was
built i,n 1818, and is now No. 140 Front
street west.
No. 19. To the east of Bishop Strachan s
and north across Market (Wellington)
i street was the cottage house of the Hon.

Front street to Lot (Quoeu) street.
No. 21. William Dummer Powell s housa
on the north-east corner of York street
fcnd Front, abcut 200 feet from Front and
on the east line of York street. It was a
handsome, old-fashioned house, built of
logs and clapboard. The site is now NOB.
100-18 Front street. The house stood on
the site of Nos. 51-3 York street.
No. 22. Bay street, which ran from
Front to Lot (Queen) streets. The tree
over the figures " 22 " hides the house
of Thomas Jobbitt, an ex-soldier of the
Rangers, on the north-west corner of
Bay and Market (Wellington) streets.
Mrs. Jobbitt afterwards lived on the
north side of Richmond street, and was
popular as the proprietress of a small
candy establishment.
No. 23. On the north-east corner of
Front and Bay streets was the cottage
of Major Hillier, a cottage which was
originally occupied by the Hon. George
Markland. It was about 200 feet north
from Front street, and about 100 feet
east of the east line of Bay street. The
gable under the figures " 23 " is part
of the house of Andrew Mercer, on the
south-west corner of Bay and Market
(Wellington) street, now "Wyld, Grasett

No. 24. The outline shows the gable
of the house of Judge Macaulay, which
was on the north-west corner of Front

Justice Sherwood.
No. 26. The drawing shows clearly the
residence of John McGill, the cottage
built in the centre of what is now the
Metropolitan church grounds, on Queen,
Church, Bond and Shuter streets. This
bnilding was erected in 1804. It was in
this cottage that the ladies of York
sought refuse during the war of 1812
(Vol. L, p. 223).
No. 27. This was Church street. In
1820 this street ran north from Front
to "Queen street. North of that was
farm land, the Jarvis property being to
the east of the modern Church street
and the McGill property to the west.
No. 28. The building shown in the
drawing to the east of the McGill cot
tage is the residence of Samuel Peters
Jarvis, a brick house, which stood where
Shuter and Jarvis streets intersect. The
gates leading to this house were on the
north side of Lot (Queen) and Jarvis
streets. There was a circular drive up
to the house. When Shuter street was
opened and Jarvis street extended the
house was removed. The old stable of
this house, built in 1818, stands to-day
at the west side of Jarvis street, about
one hundred feet south of Wilton avenue,
in off the street. It has a semi-circular
window in its gable. It must be borne
in mind that the city front to Queen
street was entirely clear of trees, so that
all these hou&es could be clearly seen
from the bay front, and, by the aid of
a powerful glass, from the Island.
No. 29. This is the Masonic Hall on
Market lane, now Colborne street. The
hall was originally a one-storey build
ing, built in 1818, and it was subse
quently improved by the addition of a
second storey. It stood on the south
line of a lane that now runs between
Church street and West Market square,
about the centre of the block on Church
street. The building was a famous
scho olh ouse, and was the first place of
worship for the Baptists in Toronto. It

north-east corner of King and Frederick
streets. The Canada Company originally
occupied the building on the south-ea - st
corner of the street, now occupied by
Mr. Stinson. The building was afterwards
the Bank of Upper Canada, prior to its
removal to the north-east corner of Duke
and George streets. Subsequently the
Canada Company occupied Baldwin s
store, and a few months ago (1896) re
moved from that building to a more cen

No. 45. Caroline, now known as Sher-,
bonif street. Owing to a misappr -
hensioii on the part of those who f-ur-
veyed the town in the fifties, the name
"Sherbourne" was incorrectly spelt. The
street was named after Sherborne, Eng
land, the birthplace of the Hon. Thomas
Ridout, and should be spelt Sherborne,"
and not "Sherbourne." It is to be hoped
that the modern directories will make
the change. The street was originallji
] named after Queen Caroline.
No. 46. Rus ell Abbey, on the north
west corner of Palace and Princess
streets. This house brings us once more
to Front street. Russell Abbey was the
residence of President Russell, and the

No. 51. Berkeley street. This ran from
Front street north, but not, as origin
ally supposed, to the bay. The direct

Palace street and ran north. It was
subsequently, about 1850, opened
through the Fair grounds south to the
bay.

was built in 1816, after the \var, and

it was used for emigration purposes by
the Government. It is now tha site of
Nos. 265-7-9 and 271 and other houses
on Front street east, the buildings being

ABOUT POSTAL HISTORY-
A History of the Postal Department of
America From the Days or the Sixteenth
Century.
L Uniou Postale, published at Berne, ;
Switzerland, the official organ of the I
International Postal Convention, recent- j
ly published some interesting papers on
the postal service of this continent, I
written by C. W. Ernst, of Boston, Mass, i
The papers ore of interest in connection i
with the same department in Canada, J
and really contain a condensation of i
the entire history of this important j
branch of public service in America from i
the earliest times.
The Post-Office Department at Wash- j
ington holds few records prior t~> 1789,
and a fire destroyed in 1836 many i
postal papers covering tl:e period from
1789 to the year named. The records of
the American postal service from 1775 :
to 1789, being the period of the Con
federation, are nearly all lost, the most
interesting relic being a book of m5mor-
anrla kept by Richard Bache. This book,
erroneously published as "The Ledger of
Doctor Benjrimin Franklin," is preserv
ed in the Treasury Department oi tha
United States, and contains postal
memoranda from 1775 to 1780. For the
earlier period WJ have the interesting
Journal of Hugh Fiulay, which reviews
the postal service of 1778-1774 in de
tail, a chapter in Joyce s History of
the (British) Po.jt-Office ; an e^say upon
"The Early History of the Colonial Post-
Office," by Mary E. Woolley ; a "His
tory of the Postal Service in Boston,
Mass., 1639-1893," by C. W. Ernst i; and
the ecattered materials to be i oxmd in
many American and European archives,
in the records of tbe American colonies,
in old almanacs, newspapers, and family
papers. Occasionally the local histories
give notes on postal affairs.
The postal hittory of the United States
of America has four periods. Up to 1693
only municipal posts existed, though at
tempts were made to establish inter
colonial posts. The American post from
1693 to 1707 stood under the Neale
patent. From 1707 to 1774 the General
Post-Office in London controlled. From
1774 to 1789 is the period of transition ;
but on the whole Congress controlled. In
1789 the Constitution took effect, Wash
ington was President, and the American
Post-OfMce became a national estab
lishment, destined to a growth not sur
passed in postal history. The inception
oJ this vast, service has abidiusr imer^t.
The rates of postage in 1703 were as
follows :
" For every letter not exceeding one
sheet of paper, 9d.; for two sheets, Is.
6d.; for every packet weighing 1 ounce
or under, 2s. 8d."
There are several reasons why the
early American posts were municipal.
It should be remembered that Engla-nd
herself had no General Post-Office until
the Act of Parliajnuent signed by Crom
well on the 9th June, 1657, gave the
necessary authority. The colonies were
not likely to have what the mother
country lacked.
To provide for ship letters, Massa,-
chusetts appointed ;ui age..- ui liu.s.ou
in 1639. He iorwurJed lett:rs not direct
ly disposed of by the captains of vessels.
The like arrangemaut w,as made at New
York. In 1672, before the beginning of
Philadelphia, Governor Lovelace ok New
York tried to arrange a post to Boston.
In 1684 Governor Dongan of New; York
received authority "for setting up post-
houses along the coast from Carolina to
Nova Scotia," at least 10 p. c. of the
profit to go to England. But so far were
the colonies from having an exchange of
mails that they could hardly be said to
have a home post. In 1657 Virginia re
quired planters to forward official let-
98

ters ; a similar law was passed four
years later. In other colonies official let
ters w. re forwarded by constables,
sheriffs, or special messengers. Of a regu
lar post there is no trace. Private corre
spondence was carried mainly by coast
wise vessels or occasional travellers.
Tradition tells of a post along the Dela
ware river, from Trenton to Newcastle
and Maryland ; but no record shows that
the service was ever performed or need
ed until 1093, when the American Post-
Office began.
This beginning is due to William III.,
and to the genius of Andrew Hamilton.
History has yet to recount the merit
of William III. in economic affairs. He
founded the Bank of England, he sub
sidized the post in Scotland, he gave
England two extraordinary men for
Postmasters-General, Cotton and Frank-
land, and he perceived the importance
of an American post. He carried the great
financial, commercial and postal tradi
tions of the Netherlands to England, and
he was determined that the colonies
shoiild share in the rise of the mother
country. A happy solution was found
for the legal and fiscal difficulties in the
way of the American post.
Acting under the law of 1660 the great
King vested the American post in Thomas
Neale, master of the mint and otherwise
eminent for enterprise and large affairs.
This interesting patent, the charter of
the American post, was signed on the
17th February, 1691. A few weeks later,
on April 4th, Thomas Neale and -the
Boyal Postmasters-General appointed
Andrew Hamilton Postmaster-General of
America. Except the king, the colonies
had never had an officer or master in
common. Would they accept an Ameri
can Postmaster-General, who was given
the postal monopoly for twenty-one;
years ? Certainly each colony had the
right to appoint a Postmaster-GerJeral
of its own, to prescribe his duties, and to
reap the rewards, if any. The patent
itself recognized the right of the colo
nies to prescribe what postage they
pleased. A dozen colonies were to be
consulted ", each was to surrender a cer
tain right ; they were to agree for once,
for without a certain agreement an
inter-colonial post would be impossible.
Hamilton, the father of the American
post, overcame all obstacles ; he achieved
a novelty in American legislation. Not
only did he induce every colony to ac
cept the Neale patent, but he led the
legislature of each to pass substantially
the same postal act, and he persuaded
name of the colonies to pay him an an
nual subsidy. Hamilton was born in Scot
land, and became a merchant in Edin
burgh. Ju. 1686 he was sent to New
j Jersey to look alter the investments of
: certain London merchants, among them
I William Dockwra, the founder of the
j London Penny-Post. Hamilton happened
i to be in London when the American post
| was proposed, and became the choice of
, the king, of Neale, of the Postmasters-
; General, of Dcckwra and the other mer-
; chants. In the summer of 1692 he sailed
for New York, and immediately upon his
arrival visited all the colonie.3 in person
I to win them over to his caiue. He was
successful beyond reasonable expectation.
All accounts unite in praising his talent
for dealing with men ; even his oppo-
! nents, William Penn among them, de
sired his friendship. He was trusted im-
; plicitly ; he endeared himself even to
j casual acquaintances. A new element
j seemed to have entered the American
struggle for existence and wealth, the
element of union, the power of colonial
co-operation. Hamilton s diplomacy was
exquisite. On moderate conditions he pro
mised a weekly post from New Hamp
shire to Virginia ; he satisfied each
colony of his ability and resources ; and
he kept every promise.
New York led in granting Hamilton ^
request ; Pennsylvania and New Hamp-
| shire followed ; Connecticut and New
Jersey joined ; Massachusetts was the
last to enter this postal union of the
colonies, and passed a model act. Vir
ginia alone failed. Its postal act of 1693
looked to Virginia only, and demanded
too much for that. Hamilton responded
by including Virginia in bis postal ser
vice. This service began on May 1st, 1693,
and consisted in a weekly post from
j Portsmouth, New Hampshire, to Boston,
! Saybrook, New York, Philadelphia, Mary-
! land, and Virginia. Five riders were en-
! gaged to cover each of the five stages
i twice a week. On an average each mail
] rider travelled near three hundred kilo-
j meters a week, in the beginning over
i a country where roads were in the state
of nature. But the service was per
formed ; only in winter, it was fort
nightly. The great mail route; from
j Portsmouth to Boston, New York, and
i Philadelphia is still the most important
j in America. .
The early accounts of Hamilton are
happily preserved in London. His own
salary was 200 a year. The post
masters had a salary of 20 or less ;
the mail riders received from 110 down.
The total expense from May 1st, 1693,
to May let, 1697, was 3,817 ; the re
venue but 1,457. This deficit, partly

ernor of the American post, was willing
to bear. His fortune nearer home had

American post, he assigned it, with all
its rights and duties, to Andrew Hamil
ton. The latter must have had igreat
faith in his Post-office ; he took tte
patent and all it implied. The posts Wi-re
continued with great regularity ; but on
April 26th, 1703, he died at Amboy in
New Jersey. The post was still in debt ;
but Hamilton s credit was unimpaired.
He had b eu governor of Pennsylvania
and New Jersey ; and in the latter colony
or province lie owned large estates. His
death was mourned throughout the colo
nies. It was equally regretted in Eng
land. Men felt that Andrew Hamilton,
more than any other man, had united
the colonies, had given them a postal
service that never failed, aud establish
ed a communion of interest* not known
before his day. The chief American port
ior foreign letters, in Hamilton s time,
was Boston. All these letters were treat
ed as ship letters, the captains receiving
a special fee for every letter they de
livered to the Poet-Office. In Hamilton s
day no newspaper was printed in Am
erica, and in New York the first printing
press was set up at the same time as the
Post-Office. The first Postmaster of
New York, Sharpae, is still remembered
faithful clerk he was, beside serving as
Postmaster.
In comparing the earliest postal laws
of the American colonies it will appear
that the postage rates they prescribed
were not entirely uniform. This seeming
discrepancy is partly due to the fact
that each colony had a different cur
rency. Each colony used Spanish silver
dollars, but counted in pounds, shillings
and pence. But while each colony re
tained the English names of money, none
retained the English currency. Some of
the colonies had coined their own money.
An English guinea (21 shillings) was 28
shillings in Massachusetts, 3G in New
York, and 34 in Pennsylvania. The postal
service had to contend with this diffi
culty during the first century of its
existence. Yet the establishment created
by the great Hamilton was theoretical
ly perfect. It provided for all contiu-.
gencies likely to arise. It required post
masters to "mark every letter with a
print " ; it required the house delivery
of every letter not called for rwithin
forty-eight hours after arrival ; and it
provided for the transmission of letters
to all parts of the world. A letter from
Boston to Neir York cost a shilling,
from Boston to Philadelphia 15 pence ;
the fee for ship letters was two pence, a
part of which was paid to the captains.
In addition they were free to charge sea
postage. The customary rat for a sea
letter became" a shilling.
Fortunately for the Post-Office, the
country was highly prosperous from the
inception of the service. The mail riders
of 1693 wt nt through a wilderness ; but
every succeeding year brought improve
ments. Population increased, affairs in
creased. Tl e Post-Office was still in debt
when Andrew Hamilton died in 1703, and
his ton John Hamilton succeeded. Yet the
Crown was anxious to possess the ser
vice. In 1707 it purchased tbe good-will
of the American Post-Ofifce for 1,664,
| continuing John Hamilton as Postmas-
j ter-Geiieral with an annual salary of
I 200. In the same year the parliamentary
1 and postal union of England and Scot
land went into effect ; William s Post
masters-General, who began in 1690
, with the struggling posts of England,
j found themselves in 1707 at the head
j of an imperial post co-extensive with the
I British empire. They had advised the
j purchase of the American post. The
i logical result was the great Post-Office
act passed by the British parliament in
1710. That great and memorable act
controlled to the time of Queen Vic
toria : ,in British North America it ruled
until the colonies, first united by Andrew
Hamilton in 1692 and 1693, became .tLe
United States by the declaration of 1776
and the treaty of 1783. When the Am
erican Post-Office, in 1707, passed under
the management of the General Post-
Office in London, two interesting events
had taken place since the death oJ Hamil
ton. The first cross-post had been estab-
i lished from New York to Albany, and
in 1704 the first American newspaper
began to appear the Boston News-
Letter, which lived until the revolution.
CHAPTER XXXVII.
THE DEPARTMENT A CENTURY AGO
The Progress of Postal Improvement on the
American Continent from the Beginning
of the Eighteenth Century.
In 1707 the English Crown bought
back the Neale patent, under which the
great Andrew Hamilton had establish
ed regular posts from New Hampshire
to Philadelphia. The dismissal of Frank
lin, in 1774, marks the end of this second
period in the history of the North Am
erican posts. The principal accounts of
this period are the acts of Parliament
passed in 1710 and 1765, respectively,
known as 9 Annae chapter 10, and 5
| Georg. III. chapter 25. In 1715 Herman
Moll, a London geographer, published
his " Map of the Dominions of the King
i of Great Britain on the Continent of
North America." This map, often re
printed throughout the period under con
sideration, indicates the post routes of
the time, and gives in the margin " Au
100
LANDMARKS OF TORONTO.
Account of ye Post of ye Continent of
Nth America." In 1772, the London au
thorities sent Hugh Fiulay to America
to report on the posts. He arrived in
1773, inspected the posts from Quebec
to New York, as well as from Virginia
eouth, and hie Journal, published in 1867
gives a perfect picture of the royal
American posts at the time of their
transition from royal to American con
trol. The Fiulay manuscript is in the
library of the Post-Office Department at
Washington. For the rest, the official
accounts of this period are nearly all
lost, and the postal history must be
gathered from newspapers, almanacs, and
the materials accidentally saved in pub
lic archives and private collections.
The great Postal Act of 1710, which
controlled in North America until 1774,
in England until Queen Victoria, was oc
casioned by the union of England and
Scotland, and in part by the purchase
of the Neale patent, both these events
having ta.ken place in 1707. A new law
was necessary, and its postal provisions
were suggested by Evelyn and Frank-
land, of whom the latter was familiar
with America. The law finally passed
made the London Postmasters General
the head of the postal service through
out the British empire, and gave them
the postal monopoly ; it made New York
the head office in North America ; it
gave the American mailriders free ferries;
and it prohibited political agitation on
the part of postal officers. The postage
rates were to be a shilling for every
single latter passing between London and
New York. This rate continued until 31st
December, 1867, and illustrates Auglo-
Americau conservatism. Domestic post
age in North America was fixed at 4
peir?e per letter carried 60 miles (about
97 kilometers) or less ; 6 pence per let
ter carried more than 60, but less than
100 miles (about 161 kilometers). A let
ter from New York to Philadelphia was
to pay 9 pence, to Boston 1 shilling, to
South Carolina 18 pence. These rates
were not materially changed by the law
of 1765, and controlled virtuallv until
1792.
The rates so established may seem high
to our age ; they answered all require
ments in North America from 1711 until
1792. They produced enough revenue for
an efficient service ; and if they did not
yield a surplus, they sufficed to maintain
the service. They related to letters only,
leaving printed matter as a perquisite
with the service. They treated every
sheet as a single letter ; and this view
prevailed in America, until 1845. The act
of 1765 permitted the establishment of
Penny-Posts, that is, of local posts for
the collation and delivery of letters not
transmitted by mail from one post-office
to another. No action was ever taken
under this provision ; but the principle
that Penny-Posts did not conflict with
the postal monopoly, survived until 1851.
On the other nand, tbe ruling of the
King s Bench, 1768 (Annual Register,
1768, p. 65), that a delivery fee could
not be lawfully collected on mail letters,
was riot accepted in America as binding.
America accepted the parliamentary post
acts with surprising composure. The
right of Parliament to establish Ameri
can postage rates was not free from
doubt ; its right to establish free ferries
was doubtful. America yielded because
the several colonies and provinces were
not prepared to co-operate, and still leas
to support a national post by local
taxes. Moreover the Crown provided a
good service, although the post retained
a half-foreign character. Postage rates
were prescribed in English sterling, while
the American Governments had each a
currency of their own, and the American
public saw very little money except a
fluctuating and depreciating paper cur
rency. It was for this reason that post
age rates on letters, up to 1774, were
indicated in pennyweights and grains, a
pennyweight of silver being the equiva
lent of threepence sterling. The value
of a pennyweight differed from one col
ony or province to another, and from
year to year. This great obstacle was
not fully removed until 1792. But the
postal service remained solvent by cling
ing to sound money, and was in a posi
tion to pay its servants well.
The Postmaster-General of America re
ceived an annual salary of 200, and
whatever he saw fit to charge for the
transmission of newspapers. Postmasters
received a percentage of their gross re
ceipts, and usually had the official frank.
This led them generally into the business
j of publishing newspapers. The mailriders,
I who are a sort of travelling post-office,
treated everything as a perquisite, ex-
l ctpt the letters charged to them by post-
; masters. On the whole, the members of
i the service were both prosperous and re-
) spected.
The Postmasters-General, appointed by
those at London, were : John Hamilton,
1703-30 ; Alexander Spotswood, 1730-39 :
Head Lynch, 1739-43; Elliot Benger,
1743-53. In 1753 Benjamin Franklin and
William Hunter were . appointed joint
Postmasters-General ; Hunter died in
1761, and was succeeded by John Fox-
croft, while Franklin served under the
Crown until his removal in 1774. Hamil
ton was the son of Andrew Hamilton, the
founder of the American post. He lived
in New Jersey, he was a good officer,
and his removal in 1730 was apparently

due to the fact that the Crown expected
a surplus, while Hamilton spent the
postal revenue in perfecting the service.
He established post-offices at Newport
in Rhode Island, at New London in Con
necticut, and at Annapolis in Maryland ;
he maintained the service he inherited
from his great father, and he establish
ed new mail routes. The most import
ant of these is the great route from
New York to Albany, which began on
the novel principle of supporting new
lines by the postage they might yield.
Under Andrew Hamilton the mailriders
hugged the Atlantic coast ; under John
Hamilton the inland service began.
His successors, from 1730 to 1753, and
in the case of Hunter to 1761, were Vir
ginians. They developed the service from
Philadelphia to South Carolina. The
post-office at Charleston, S. C., was es
tablished about 1740. But on the whole
they had limited success, though Spots-
wood left a noble record. A new era
began with Franklin and Hunter, in
1753. Both had postal experience. Frank
lin having been postmaster of Philadel
phia since 1737, while Hunter, also an
eminent printer, was postmaster of Wil-
liamsburg, Va. Hunter s successor, Fox-
oroft, lived at New York, and was a
very good officer. Franklin was a great
man ; the work of the post-office may
not have suited him. He was generally
absent from his post, and was removed
for that reasoii in 1774.
The few postal remains of the Frank
lin era are the interesting letters print
ed in his works, a broadside of 1753 on
the keeping of postal accounts by post
masters, and the reports of the time.
His letter to Todd, dated 29th October,
1769, has world-wide interest as describ
ing the Gulf stream, of which he sub
mitted the first cha.rt and the very name.
His letter to Potts, dated 23rd April,
1761, is a masterpiece of ingenuity. His
letter to Hector St. Jean do Crevecoeur,
not dated, but probably written in 1783,
reviews the Atlantic mail service and
suggests the compartment system now
in general use. The publication, in 1774,
was in England, where he had gone ten
years before. In fact, during the 21 years
that he was American Postmaster-Gen
eral under the Crown, he was absent
from the country two-thirds of the
time.
Yet he marks the beginning of a new
era. In Philadelphia he introduced de
livery by carriers. He established new
poet-offices ; he extended the great post
route to Maine and Georgia ; and when
General Braddock entered upon his fam
ous campaign to the Ohio, to decide
whether England or France should con
trol the Mississippi valley, Franklin sup
plied Braddock with waggons and estab
lished the first field-post in America,
from Philadelphia to Winchester in Vir
ginia. This campaign, beginning with a
great catastrophe to the English, occa
sioned a postal event of the first im
portance. Braddock a defeat convinced
the Crown that it needed regular com
munication with America, both to re
ceive and supply information. The entire
Mississippi valley was at stake ; indeed,
both France and England contended for
the mastery of all North America. On
the 15th of November, 1755, the British
post-office despatched its first regular
mail packet for New York (2 Penusylv.
Archives 467). The Atlantic mail service
thus begun has never ceased. Until July
| 4th, 1840, when the Cunard steamships
began to carry the mails, a monthly
mail packet had sailed from Falmouth
and New York, respectively, without
serious interruption since 1755. These
exchanges of mails have rendered very
great services. Only a great and am
bitious power could afford such a ser
vice.
The struggle between France and Eng
land for American control was decided
in favour of England. Canada was trans
ferred from France to England, and to
tie it closer to the English possessions
in America, the Crown soon established
a post route f^om New York to Mont
real and Quebec". When Finlay was sent
out in 1772, to inspect the American
poets that consumed all they earned, he
began with a survey of a mail route
between Boston and Quebec. The Crown
and its officers were anxious to hold
Canada ; they knew the importance of
regular posts ; they took large views.
When the rupture between the Crown and
its American possessions was complete,
the Crown might well say that it had
dismissed a great American from office,
but that it had given America a postal
service from Maine to Florida, from New
York to Quebec, and a monthly service
across the Atlantic ocean. It is not be
lieved that the colonies unaided could
have achieved so much. They might have
i maintained municipal posts ; they enjoy
ed a national and international service.
In 1773 the mail between New York ;md
Philadelphia was carried every other
day ; between New York and New Hamp
shire every third day ; and the mail be
tween Boston and Portsmouth, N. IT.,
was carried by stage coach, a service
which did not begin in England until
1784, or after the English Crown had
recognized the independence of the United
States. It was the post-office that led
in this movement for independence ; and
this movement towards an independent
or American post-office began in 1773,

when Paul Revere became the confiden
tial postrider of Massachusetts, and
when William Goddard, of Baltimore, ad
vocated what he called a constitutional
as opposed to the parliamentary post.
The dismissal of Franklin, in 1774, gave
this movement a force which the Crown
was unable to check. On the 25th of
December, 1775, Postmaster-General Fox-
croft announced the end of the royal
post in North America ; Finlay, his as
sociate, retired to Canada, where he
served as Postmaster-General until the
end of the century ; on the 4th of July,
1776, the united colonies issued their
declaration of independence, and became
the United States of America.
CHAPTER XXXVIII.
THE WORK OF A CENTURY.
A Brief History of the Post Office Depart
ment from the Founding of Confedera
tion.
The Post-office Department of Canada
is under the control of a Postmaster-
General, who is i\ member of the Privy
Council, and may be a member either
of the Senate or House of Commons. The
Postmaster-General is assisted in the gen
eral management of the business of the
department by a Deputy Postmaster-
General.
The post-office service is divided into
two divisions the inside service and the
outside service. The inside service com- !
prises the staff at headquarters, where j
the business is distributed among the fol
lowing branches :
The secretary s branch has charge of
the general correspondence with the pub
lic, with foreign post-offices, and with
the offices of the outside service. The
secretary has charge of the establish
ment of new post-offices, of all appoint
ments and promotions in the staff of
both the inside and outside service, and
of the appointments of all postmasters.
He has custody of the bonds given by
all postmasters for due fulfilment of
office. He has also charge of the en
quiries respecting missing letters.
The accountant keeps all books of ac
count, and is responsible to the Post
master-General for the prompt collection
of post-office revenue, and for the exam
ination of all vouchers for expenditure
and for the payment of all accounts.
The superintendent of the money order
office has the supervision of all duties
connected with the issue and payment
of money orders, and conducts the cor-
reepouteire connected therewith.
Tue Savings Bank business is under the
charge of a superintendent, to whom is
delegated the charge of all matters con
nected with the receipt and withdrawal
of Savings Bank deposits.
There is also a separate branch called
the dead letter office, under charge of a
superintendent, for the receipt and dis-
posa 1 of all undelivered correspondence,
including parcels and everything trans
missible by post.
Another branch of the department is
the printing and supply branch, the su
perintendent of which has the sole charge
of the ordering, receipt, custody and dis
tribution of the printed forms), stationery,
mail bagSy locks, stamps, and all other
stores used in the post office service.
The charge of the mail service., includ
ing letting, execution and general super
vision of mail contracts and the corres-
, jioudeuce connected therewith, is also
l confided to a superintendent, and forms
I a separate branch.
The remaining branch is the stamp
, branch, the superintendent of which has-
charge of the ordering, receipt and issue
of all postage stamps,, cards, wrappers,
bands and stamped envelopes.
OUTSIDK SERVICE.
To ensure a proper supervision over
the working of the department in its
relation with the public, the Dominion
is divided into fifteen divisions or dis
tricts, each of which is in charge of a
post-office inspector, who superintends the
performance of the ordinary mail ser
vice, establishes post-offices, carries on
enquiries respecting missing letters, in
vestigates complaints, and does all those
things which have of necessity to be done
by local officers.
A certain number of th? more important
offices, such as Montreal, Toronto, and
Ottawa, are included in what is techni
cally known as the outside office service
of the post-office. The postmasters and
clerks are appointed by the Governor-
General in Council, and are paid fixed
salaries, come under the provisions of
the Superannuation Act, and together
I with post-office inspectors and their
> clerks and the railway mail clerks, com-
! prise the outside service of the poet-
office. Postmasters generally are not in-
cluded in what is known as the civil
service.

HISTORY.
Upon the confederation of the pro
vinces in 1867, an act known as the
Post-office Act, 1867, was passed by the
Parliament of the Dominion. This act
took effect from the 1st April, 186S, and
from that date a uniform system of post-
office organization was established
throughout the provinces of the new
Dominion. The domestic rate of postage
was reduced from five cents to three
cents per half ounce; the rate to the
United States was reduced from ten cents
to six cents the half ounce, and reduc
tions were also made in the rates of
postage upon newspapers, periodicals and
other miscellaneous matter.
On 1st January, 1869, there were 3,638
post-offices in the Dominion. The revenue
of the department was $1,024,701.
The money order business having been
in operation for several years before the
confederation of the provinces, this branch
of the post-office service was continued
with such changes in detail as were
necessary to secure uniformity through
out the Dominion.
An act authorizing the establishment
of a post-office savings bank was passed
in December, 1867, and on 1st April,
1868, eightj -one of the principal post-
offices in Ontario and Quebec commenced
to receive deposits on savings bank ac
counts. As there were already in exist
ence in the provinces of Nova 1 , Scotia and
New Brunswick Government savings
banks, it was not thought expedient to
extend the post-office system to those
provinces until some experience had been
had of its working in Ontario and Que
bec.
On the 1st of January, 1870, the rate
of postage upon letters from Canada to
the United Kingdom was reduced from
12 1-2 cents the half ounce to six cents
the half ounce.
When the post-offices of the several
provinces of the Dominion c"irne un3er
central administration at Ottawa in
July, 1867, it was found that there was
great diversity of practice in the mode
in which postmasters were compensated
for their services, some being paid by
a regular fixed salary, some by commis
sion on the business of their offices, and
some partly by commission and partly
by ealary.
A general scale of compensation was
therefore adopted a minimum salary of
$10 a year to all email offices where
the business did not warrant a higher
payment, and in all other cases a salary
equal to 40 p. e. on all postal business UD
to $800 a year and 25 per cent, on all
business over that amount, and a special
allowance in addition where the work
had to be done during the nighty and
for forwarding or distributing mails for
other offices. This change took effect
from the first of January, 1870, salaries
to be raised every two years.
Regular mail communication was first
opened with Fort Garry (now Winnipeg)
in 1870, the mails being sent by Chi
cago, St. Paul and Pembiua.
In 1871 arrangements were made for
mail service to British Columbia. The
mails were made up at Windsor^ On-
104
LANDMARKS OF TORONTO.
tario, and sent to San Francisco, wh,ere
they were conveyed by eea to Victoria.
The inclusion of the provinces oS Mani
toba and British Columbia necessarily
involved the department in heavy ex
penditure to maintain communication
with the older provinces throughout the
vast extent of country lying between
the great lakes of Ontario and the Pa
cific Ocean. One of the first routes es
tablished was from Winnipeg^ then
known as Fort Garry, to Pembina, at a
cost of three thousand dollars ($3vOOO)
a year ; another was from New West
minster to Barkervillev in British Co
lumbia, 486 miles, at an annual cost of
sixteen thousand dollars ($16,,000.)
Postcards were first issued to tho pub
lic in Jnne k 1871. The convenience thus
afforded was rapidly availed of,, and
nearly one million and a half were is
sued between June, 1871, and January,
1872 .
In 1872 the rate 01 postage upon let
ters sent from Canada to Newfoundland
was reduced from 12 1-2 cents to six
cents per half ounce, and the rate of post
age upon other matter made the same
as within the Dominion.
The organization of the postal service
in Manitoba and British Columbia having
been completed, the postal business of
those provinces appears for the first time
in the report for 1872.
From July 1, 1873, all payments for
salaries and other disbursements on ac
count of the city post-ofi icea were made
from a special appropriation from Par
liament, instead of being paid out o!
postages collected at the several offices,
as had hitherto been the practice, the
amount collected from postage being from
the above date paid into the credit of the
Receiver-General.
In 1873 an arrangement was made for
an exchange of money orders between
Canada and British India, and in this
year the money order system was also
extended to Manitoba.
Prince Edward Island entered the Do
minion in July, 1873, and arrangements
were at once made for bringing the postal
system of that island into harmony with
the rest of the Dominion.
The system of free delivery by letter
carriers of letters and newspapers was
commenced in 1874 in Montreal and To
ronto, and preparations were made for
extending the system to such of the other
cities as might, by extent of postal busi
ness, seem to be entitled to such addition
al accommodation ; street letter boxes for
the reception of letters were also intro
duced in the larger cities aud towns, and
persona to be called stamp vendors were
authorized to sell postage stamps to the
public. Up to this time postage stamps
could only be obtained from postmasters.
In 1874 an important change was made
in the treatment of dead letters. Hereto-
lore such letters only as appeared ta be of
value or importance had been returned
to the writers ; but it was decided that,
owing to the unsatisfactory character of
the discrimination which a cursory ex
amination o: the letters rendered possible,
the system should be changed, and all
such letters should in the future be re
turned to the writers.
In 1874 a treaty for the formation of
a general postal union, and the adoption
of uniform postage rates and regulations
for international correspondence, was ar
ranged and signed at Berne, in
Switzerland, by representatives of the-
principal nations of the world, including
the United States.
This treaty did not include the British
possessions beyond the sea, but Canada,
with the concurrence of the British Gov
ernment, at once applied for admission as.
a member. Meanwhile the letter rate ot
postage between Canada and the United
Kingdom was, by an arrangement with
the Imperial post-office, reduced to the
international rate of 2 l-2d sterling, or
five cents, the half-ounce.
The Canada Official Postal Guide was
first published in 1874.
Post bands were first issued in 1873.
In February, 1875, a postal conven
tion was made between Canada and the
United States for the reduction of postal
charges and general simplification and
the improvement o; the postal intercourse
between the two countries.
Under this convention an arrangement
was made by which each country gave
conveyance over its mail routes to the
closed domestic mails of the other free of
charge when passing in transit through
its territory ; and letters, newspapers and
other ordinary mail matter, posted and
prepaid in either country in the ordinary
domestic rates o: that country, were to-
be delivered at destination in the other
without further charge of postage.
A further convention was made in June.
1875, to take effect iroiu the 2nd August,
1875, for a direct change of money or
ders between the united States and Cau-
ada.
In April, 1875, an act to amend and
consolidate the statute law for the regu
lation of the postal service was passed,
to come into force on the 1st October,
1875.
By this act changes of much import
ance were made in the postal system
of Canada, chiefly in the adoption of
the principle of compulsory prepayment
of the postage upon all letters, news*

papers and other mailable matter pass
ing within the Dominion, and in the
reduction of the rates on newspaper.*,
periodicals and miscellaneous matter.
The new rates of postage were : Let-
tore, three cents per nah ounce; drop let
ters, one cent per half ounce; post-cards,
on: cent each; newspapers and periodi
cals from the office of publication to
regular subscribers, one cent per pound
buli; weight; transient papers and books,
one cent per four ounces; parcels, 12 1-2
centw per eight ounces. Request letters-
thai is, letters having printed thereon
th3 name and address of the sender,
with the request that euch letter, if
not delivered within a certain time
specified thereon, might be returned
direct to the writer without passing
through the Dead Letter Office wero
first recognized by the department in
November, 1875.
The free delivery of letters by letter
carrier was extended to the cities of
Quebec, Ottawa, Hamilton, St. John and
Halifax in 1875.
In July, 1876, the opening of the In
tercolonial Railway afforded means of
communication by rail between the west
ern and the Maritime Provinces, by
which a great acceleration in the trans-
mission of mails to and from the West
ern Provinces and Halifax and St. John
was effected.
The establishment in November, 1876,
of a mail service between Winnipeg and
Edmonton, a distance of nine hundred
miles, left but little more to be done
to complete the service from Halifax to
^Vancouver.
The postage on letters to Newfound
land was reduced to five cents per half
ounce, and the registration fee on each
registered letter passing between the
United Kingdom and Canada was reduced
from eight cents to five cents.
The opening of this railway also en
abled the Post-office Department to make
an arrangement for embarking and laud
ing the mails for and from Europe by
the Canadian line of mail steamers, at
Rimouski, a point on the Intercolonial
Railway 191 miles east of Quebec, by
which a very considerable saving of time
in the transmission of these mails to
the principal cities in the Dominion was
effected. During the winter the mails
were landed at Halifax, instead of being
carried on to Portland, Maine.
In January, 1877, an arrangement was
made with the general post-oifice of the
German Empire for a regular direct ex
change of correspondence, and the rate
of postage upon letters was reduced to
five cents the half ounce. Reductions were
: also made in the postage upon other
classes of correspondence .
By the convention oi Paris, dated 1st
June, 1878, Canada was admitted to be
a member of the General Postal Union
from the 1st July, 1S7S, and in conse
quence the rate of letter postage be
tween Canada and all Europe oecama
vni-i uniform charge of five cents per half
ounce.
Newspapers, printed matter and
samples and patterns of merchandise be-
i came subject also to uniform postage
I rates and regulations for all destinations
in Europe.
The existing postal arrangements be-
tweeu the United States and Canada
were by mutual agreement allowed to-
remain undisturbed by the entry of Can
ada into the union.
Tho postal agreement between the post-
office of the German Empire and Can
ada expired, however, as provided by the
agreement.
In June, 1880, an amended convention
i was made between the Post-office De-
! partment of the United States and the
i Post-office Department of Canada, for the
; purpose of making certain alterations in
i the system under which money orders
were exchanged between the United
States and Canada. Under this conven
tion the maximum amount of each money
order was fixed at fifty dollars, with,
power to increase the amount to one
hundred dollars by mutual agreement be
tween the two Post-office Departments.
The maximum amount of a money order
had previously been forty dollars.
The rate of commission was fixed at
ten cents for any sum not exceeding ten
, dollars, and ten cents additional for
every ten dollars or fraction thereof^
In 1881 an agreement was entered into
for the establishment for direct steam
communication between Canada, the
West Indies and Brazil. The first steamer
of the- line, the Comte d Eau, arrived
at Halifax from Rio de Janeiro on the
31st December, 1881, with mails from
Rio de Janeiro, Bahia, Peruambuco, Para-
and St. Thomas, West Indies, and sailed
from Halifax on the return voyage on
the llth January, 1882.
On the 17th May, 1882, an act was
passed, which came into force on the
1st June, 1882, by which under certain
conditions as to form and manner of
posting newspapers and periodical*
printed and published in Canada, and
mailed by the publisher in the post-
office at the place where they are pub
lished, and addressed to regular sub
scribers or newsdealers in Canada, resi-
den 1 - elsewhere than in the place of pub
lication, were transmitted by mail to>

their respective addresses free of post- I
age.
OL. the let July, 1882, the charge for
commission irt the issue of money orders !
in Canada, payable in the United King
dom, was reduced to the same scale ;
as that agreed upon in the United States j
in the amended money order convention
of 1880.
A convention for the exchange of money ;
orders between France and Canada was
signed by Earl Granvilie, Secretary of
Btatc for Foreign Affairs, and Mr. Wad-
<liiigton, Ambassador of France to the
Court o! St. James, on 20th June, 1884, |
and went into operation on the 1st Nov-
ember following.
During the years 1883 and 1884 special
money order conventions were made be-
tweer. the post-offices of the German Em
pire, Italy, Switzerland and Belgium and
Canada, and arrangements were made |
by which Canada could exchange money
orders with Germany, Italy, Belgium,
Switzerland, Austria, Sweden, Norway,
Denmark, the Netherlands, Barbadoes,
.iiiri Jamaica, Victoria (Australia), Tas
mania, and New Zealand, and generally
with all British possessions and foreign
countries with which the British post- i
office had money order arrangements.
On 1st January, 1885, a post office ;
and money order office was established j
for the convenience of the large number of 1
men engaged in connection with the con- j
st ruction of the Canadian Pacific railway,
the post-office and home of the postmaster
being in a railway car, which had been
fitted up as well as circumstances would
permit for that purpose. As the laying of
the track progressed the car moved west
ward until the section o the road coming
eastward was met, when the necessity
for the o fice having ceased, the "end-of
track" post-o fice became a thing of the
past. To give an idea of the convenience
afforded by this office, it may be stated
that during the ten months in which it
was in existence money orders to the
value of .$65,304 were issued there.
On the 1st November, 1885, the main
line of the Canadian Pacifis railway was
completed to "Winnipeg, and a mail ser
vice by railway, with postal car and mail
clerks in charge, was commenced from
Montreal and Ottawa to Winnipeg, the
trip being made in about sixty-six hours,
the distance 1,430 miles.
On Monday, the 29th June, 1886, the
first through line left Montreal for the
Pacific, and reached Port Moody, the then
western terminus of the Canadian Pacific
railway, on the 4th July. This train car
ried a post-office car, in the special
charge of the chief po^t-office inspector,
Mr. John Dewe, under whose supervision
the arrangements which had already been
made for daily ^o;tal car service over the
whole line of 2,892 miles, went into
operation.
The Canadian Pacific railway thus, iu
connection with the railways already in
existence in Quebec and the Maritime
Provinces afforded a continuous daily
line of mail service by postal car over
Canadian territory from the Atlantic to
the Pacific, a distance of 3,740 miles.
In August, 1885, an arrangement was
made with the Imperial post-office for
the transmission of closed parcels by mail
between the two countries, no single par
cel to exceed three pounds in weight.
On the 1st November, 1885, the Post-
office Savings Bank system, which had
fo.- several years been in operation in
the Provinces of Ontario and Quebec, was
extended to Nova Scotia and New Bruns
wick.
The completion of the Canadian Pacific
railway to the Pacific Ocean enable^
the Canadian post-offices to send mailB
direct to China and Japan by vessel*
sailing to and from Vancouver.
An amended postal convention for the
purpose of making better postal arrange
ments between the United States and
the Dominion of Canada was signed in
January, 1888. One of the chief pro
visions was the admission to the mails
of a variety of miscellaneous articles
so put up as to be liable to inspection,
at a rate of postage one cent per ounce,
an arrangement which afforded great con
venience to the people of both countries.
The above was amended by a further
convention signed on the 25th April,
1888, establishing a uniform rate of one
cent per ounce upon all merchandise, and
a rate of one ceat for two ounces upon
all books, pamphlets, circulars, and all
printed tnatter generally.
On the retirement from office, after a
service of forty-eight years, of Mr. H.
A. Wicksteed, tie accountant of the de
partment, the several accounting branches
of the department w^re placed under the
control of one officer, who wa.s callei
the Financial Comptroller, but tl e change
was not found to mset the expectations
which had been formed of its utility, and
on the death of Mr. J. Cunningham
j Stewart, who had ben appointed to
the office, the position was not, and has
not since been filled.
The 1st of July, 1888, was marke^l by
the retirem.- nt of Mr. W. H. Griffin,
Deputy Postmaster-General, after a ser
vice of fifty-seven years ; he had been
the permanent head of the post-office of
Upper and Lower Canada from the time
when the control of the department was
handed over to the principal authorities

in 1851, until Confederation, and Eeputy
Postmaster-G3neral after the union.
Lieut.-Col. William White, who had be n
secretary of the department since 1861,
succeeded hfim, and has done much to
bring the department to its present state
of efficiency.
Colonel White s is a somewhat strik
ing personality ; he is a Justice of the
Peace for the County of Carleton and
lieutenant-colonel of the 43rd Batta
lion of Canadian Militia cad was born
in London, England, January Gth, 1830.
and was educated at a private fchvol
near London, England, and shortly a.ter
leaving school he was appointed (19th
Feb., 1846) to the Civil Service as a clerk
in the General post-office, St. Martin s
le Grand. This appointment he resign
ed in April, 1854, in which year he came
to Canada. He remained at Goderich,
in Western Ontario, during the sum
mer of 1854, and in November of that
year, entered the Civil Service of Can
ada as chief clerk in the money order
branch of the Post-office Department.
This .position he retained until Janu-
axy, 1861, when he was promoted to
the secretaryship of the department.
He was gazetted a lieutenant in the
3rd Battalion of Toronto militia on 31st
March, 1859, and transferred to the un
attached list on the 18th May, 1860.
At the time of the Trent affair in 1861
he joined the Civil Service Rifle Com
pany, and served as a non-commission
ed officer therein until the Civil Service
Regiment was formed, in which he com
manded a company (commission as cap
tain, dated 21st September, I860,) until
it was disbanded in December, 1868.
He was appointed to the command of
an independent rifle company on the
23rd July, 186!?, and promoted to the
rank of brevet-major, 25th January,
1872. On the organization of the Gov
ernor-General s Foot Guards in ?J72,
his company became No. 1 Company
of the Guards, in which regiment he
was appointed senior major on the 20th
September, 1872. He was promoted lieu
tenant-colonel by brevet, 25th Jan
uary, 1877, and was transferred from
the Foot Guards to the 43rd Battalion
as lieutenant-colonel on the re-organi
zation of the Ottawa and Carleton
Rifles, on the 5th August, 1881. He
commanded the Canadian team at Wim
bledon in 1884, on which occasion they
won the Kolapore Cup. He has
likewise been president ot the Ot
tawa Athenaeum and Mechanics In
stitute, secretary of the Ottawa Natu
ral History Society, and presi
dent of the Ottawa Field Natur
alists Club. Colonel White was ap
pointed in June, 1880, a member of the
Royal Commission to enquire into the
Civil Service of Canada. He has never
taken an active part in politics, and
cannot be said to belong to either of
the two igreat political parties. He mar
ried at St. George s, Hanover Square,
London, on 1st October, 1853, Eliza
beth, daughter of George Keen, of Lam
beth.
In June, 1889, a convention was signe 1
with Japan for a direct exchange of
money orders between Japan and Can
ada, the conditions being similar to those
in the conventions already made with
other coiintries.
By the Post-Office Act of 1889, the
limit of weight of a single rate letter
was increased from half an ounce to an
ounce ; the rate on drop letters was fixed
at two cents the ounce. The charge for
registration was also made uniform and
fixed at five cents.
The mail service established between
Canada, the West Indies and Brazil som^
years since did not answer the exp3Cta-
tions formed of it, and was finally dis
continued. In January, 1890, ^however,
it was thought that as far as the West
Indies at any rate such, a service might
be re-established with advantage, and a
service was therefore inaugurated be
tween St. John, New Brunswick, and
Demsrara, touching en route at some of
the West India Islands.
Through the courtesy of the Imperial
Post-Office an arrangement was made
by which parcels could be r&ceived from
or forwarded to (via England) all coun
tries with which the Unitei Kingdom had
a parcel post.
A convention, taking effect from let
Octobsr, 1880, w -.s made with Japan for
the establishment of- a parcel post be
tween the two countries, and a similar
convention with Barbadoes taking e. L Ct
from 1st April, 1891.
On the 28th April, 1891, there arrived
at Vancouver the magnificent steamship
the Empress of India, tie first vessel of
the line which had be -11 established by
the Canadian Pacific Railway Company
under the contract with the Imperial
Post-Office. The route taken by this line
between Vancouver and China and Japan
is 300 miles shorter than any other
route from the American continent, and
as the vessels of the line run at a high
rate o! speed, the time hitherto taken to
reach China and Japan has been ma
terially lessened.
A convention for a direct interchange
of money orders between Canada and the
Leeward Islands was concluded on the
llth February, 1892. Similar conven
tions were concluded between Canada and
Bermuda on the Gth December, 1892, and
between Canada and British Guiana on
th<; 7th December, 1892. A convention
108

-a made with British Guiana for^ a
direct exchange of parcels on the 7th
December, 1892.
Arrangements were also made for in
creasing the weight of parcels sent be
tween Canada and the United Kingdom
from seven pounds to eleven pounds, and
for a slight reduction in the charge upon
all parcels exceeding one pound in weight.
The arrival at Vancouver on the 9th
June, 1893, of the Miowera, which had
sailed from Sydney on the 18th May,
marks an epoch in the history of the
Canadian post-office, which well may be
the starting point from which a great
future may develop, and whilst it is the
last event to be reached in this short
sketch of the growth of the Canadian
post-office since the confederation of the
Nortli American colonies, no event which
ha*? occurred is more pregnant with in
terest to the inhabitants of both Canada
and Australia, or more likely to exercise
au important influence upon the Empire
to which we are all so proud to belong,
because in connection with the fast ser-
T lce across the Atlantic, and the won-
oerfui facilities afforded by the Canadian
Pacific railway for the transmission of
mails and passengers between Vancouver
and Halifax, it will make Canada the
great highway to the Australian col
onies and the islands of the Pacific, as it al
ready is becoming to China and Japan.
A comparieou of the transactions of
the Canadian past-offices for the year
ended 30th June, 1868, with those for
the year ending 30th June, 1895, will
show at a glance the enormous increase
in the operations of the department dur
ing the quarter of a century which Las elapsed
since the. confederation of the provinces.
For the year ending 30th June, 1868,
thr revenue was $1,024,701.98.
For the year ending 30th June, 1895,
thn revenue amounted to $3,815,455.71,
an incrsrso of $2,990,753.73.
At the close of 18G8 there were in
Canada 3,638 post-offices; on 30th June,
1895, 8.832 nost offices were in operation.

The following article, copied from a
paper published in the Province of
Quebec, the Journal Des Trois Riv
ieres, dated August 16, 1869, gives
some interesting details of the
Canadian Postal System. From this
paper we learn that on the cession of
this country to Great Britain, a regu
lar mail carrier was established be
tween the cities of Montreal and Que
bec. The celebrated Benjamin Franklin
was the Deputy Postmaster-General lor
the English colonies from 1750 to 1774.
In 1776 this functionary, while giving
evidence before a committee of the
British Parliament, sta,ted that, as a
rule, the mail carrier kept the route
by the water highways, seldom pene
trating into the interior. From thGs evi
dence, also, we learn that the mail com
munication between Quebec and Mont-
treal was not more frequent than once
a juaonih. For not having establisJhed
intermediate post-offices between the
two towns, Franklin alleged the great
distance between the settlers on the
banks of the St. Lawrence, the isolation
of the Canadian villages, and the exces
sive difficulty of inter-communication
in his day. The fact is, however, that
lien jam in Franklin was a great enemy
to Canadian prosperity, and always look
ed, with aversion upon the people of the
newly acquired colony.
In 1774 war having broken out be
tween the mother country and the Eng
lish colonies, Franklin was deprived of
his office, and Mr. Hugh Finlay, a sub
ordinate of the great republican phil
osopher, was appointed Deputy Post
master-General for Canada. Mr. Fin-
lay had given great proofs of capacity
under the previous regime, and
being a man of very high
character and probity, he was
armed with large discretionary powers
to put the mail system of Canada on
a better footing, and to make its oper
ations more extended and regular. Un
til 190, there were added but two in
termediate postoffices between Quebec
and Montreal ; in the year following
offices were opened at Three Rivers
and Berthier. Every month, however,
a mail messenger was sent by Halifax
to England. At this date the local mail
betwixt Quebec and Halifax was bi
weekly in summer and once a week in
winter. The local mail between Que
bec and Montreal had increased to twice
a week. In 1800 Mt. Hugh Finlay was
succeeded in office by Mr. George Her-
iot. This gentleman, being also com-
mi"sioned as Deputy Postmaster-Gen
eral for New Brunswick and Nova Sco-
LANDMARKS OF TORONTO.
109
tia, as well as for tha two Canadas, had
to oversee the service throughout all ,
these provinces, and to visit them from i
time to time. In the four first years j
of his administration he opened but one I
new postoffice in Lower Canada, and j
five in the upper province. Matters pro- J
gressed slowly enough until 1816, when i
Mr. David Sutherland succeeded Mr. 1
Heriot. Ini 1817 he opened six addition- j
al offices of delivery in Lower Canada, j
which made the total number of offices
in operation thirteen. Nova Scotia and
Prince Edward Island were placed under
the management of independent officers, i
and in that year the mails were still !
sent but weekly to New Brunswick. In :
1824 Mr. Sutherland Avas succeeded by
Mr. Thomas Allen Stayner, and it was
in this year that New Brunswick was
endowed with an independent postal de
partment. Mr. Stayner administered
his important office for the space of
twenty -seven years with great zeal,
and giving entire satisfaction to
the public. He greitly increased
the number of local offices, and inau
gurated many of the reforms which have
since developed into that vast and safe
system of communication with which
our people ore Tartuliar. On the 6tb
April, 1851, the Canadian mail depart
ment was transferred from the Imperial
to Provincial control, the first Postmas-
i er-<^eneral being the Hon. John MorrLs.
Some idea of the progress made from
1760 to 1781, a period of twenty years,
may be obtained by contrasting the de
partment under which Benjamin Frank
lin, and that over which Mr. Morris
was called to preside. The carrier, who
made monthly journeys on horseback be
tween the military posts of Quebec and
Montreal, and whose safe arrival at
either of those then distant cities would
no doubt cause the utmost satisfaction
to the King s lieges, male and female,
had been replaced by the steamboat,
and soon would be by the railway, and
the two primitive post-offices of Can
ada had extended into a network of 601
local offices, transmitting among them
letters to the number of 2,132,000 an
nually. In 1861 these figures had at
tained to 1,775 offices, and the num
ber of letters transmitted to 9,400,000;
in addition to a weekly line of ocean
mail steamers to Europe, over 1,200
miles of railway, doing mail service
from one end of Canada to the other,
and a magnificent network of tele
graphic wire supplementing the postal
system. What cumber of offices were
open and the number of letters carried
for the year ending July, 1867, when the
postal system of the Dominion was
placed under one head, we have not at
hand, but we may state that during
the official term of the Hon. MX. Lange-
vin, the revenus from this source at
tained almost 900,000. In the year 1851
the system of cheap postage was tried
in Canada, the rate being reduced from
an average one of fifteen cents to a
uniform rate of five cents prepaid, and
seven cents for unpaid letters. In the
following year this reform resulted in
doubling the number of letters carried,
with the reduction of only one-third of
the previous revenue, and in a short
time the receip.s not only increased to
the former figure, but grtatly exceed
ed it.

CANADIAN PARLIAMENTS.
Slmcoe s First Legislature The Early Mem
bers Contested Elections and Their Rr
suits WUere the Honse Met and iien.
The first Parliament of Upper Canada
was elected in 1792. The infant town
of York formed a portion of the con
stituency of York County, the member
being Mr. James Baby, who also repre
sented Lincoln. He was succseded in
1796 and in 1801 by Richard Beasley,
and in 1805 by Solomon Hill and R.
Nelles. In 1801 Henry Alcock represent
ed East York, and Angus McDonellwas
the member in 1802 and 1805. Mr. Wil
liam Weeks sat for what is described
as the second riding of York in 1805,
and Justice Thcrp in 1806. In 1813 the
West Riding of York was represented
by John Wilson, and in the latter year
Mr. Thomas Ridout also sat for the
same constituency, combined with the
county of Simcos. He appears to have
had for his colleague Robert Nelles,
who was also member for the First Rid
ing of Lincoln and Haldimand. In 1817
Peter Robinson represented East York,
and in 1820 the town of York obtained
separate representation, Mr. John Bev-
erley Robinson being the first member.
Very few of the records of the early
Parliaments are complete, many hav
ing been irrecoverably lost, so it is im
possible to give a list of the members
for the county with any great degree
of accuracy. As far, though, as can be
ascertained, from 1792 to 1820 they were
as follows:
1792 James Baby, York.
1796 Richard Beasley, W.R
1801 Richard Beasley, W.R.
Henry Alcock, E.R.

1813 Thomas Ridout, W R.
Robert Nelles, W.R.
1817 Peter Robinson, E.R..
W.R. and E.R. stand for West and
East Riding 1 respectively.
The earliest record, as has been stat
ed, of a member being returned to the
Provincial Parliament by the town of
York was in 1820, when the late Sir
John Beyerley Robinson, after
wards Chief Justice, was elected.
He continued to hold the seat until
1829, when the late William Lyon Mac
kenzie was elected. He sat for about a
year, when he was displaced by the late
Hon. Robert Baldwin ; but again was
elected in 1831, and held possession
until 1830 , when the late Chief Justice
Draper was elected in his place.
A general election followed Lord
Sydenharn s act for the union of the
two provinces of Upper and Lower Can
ada in 1841, when Isaac Buchanan and
John Henry Dunn (the latter had been
for many yeara Receiver-General of
Upper Canada) were elected. They were
both Reformers, while their opponents
were George Monro and Henry Sher
wood, Conservatives. There was a great
deal of rioting and noise at this elec
tion, but no very serious disturbance.
Mr. Buchanan resigned January 2nd,
1843, and was succeeded by Hon. Henry
Sherwood, the elections taking place on
March 6th, 1843. Capt. Macaulay was
the unsuccessful candidate. Both were
Conservatives.
At the general election ot 1844 Wm.
Henry Boulton and Henry Sherwood
were returned. In 1848 there was no
change in the representation of the city,
the old members securing re-election.
In 1852, though, there was a change,
George Percival Ridout succeeding Mr.
Sherwood, and having as his colleague
W. H. Boulton. The latter resigned in
February, 1853, and a new election fol
lowed, when Mr. Sherwood once more
came in.
In 1854 John George Bowes and John
Hillyard Cameron were elected.
At the election of 1857 the candi
dates were for the Conservatives John
B. Robinson and W, H. Boulton, the Re
formers, George Brown. The poll re
sulted thus: Brown, 2,365; Robinson,
2,303; Boulton, 2,204.
A bye-election took place in Septem
ber, 1858, on Mr. George Brown accept
ing office. Mr. John H. Cameron was
the opposing candidate. The result was:
Brown, 2,665; Cameron, 2,510; majority
for Brown 155.
At the general election of 1861 Tor
onto was divided into east and west,
j the members being John Crawford and
John Beverley Robinson respectively.
The last Parliament of Upper and
! Lower Canada was elected July 3rd,
I 1863, when Mr. A. M. Smith and Mr.
John Macdonald were elected respect
ively for East and West Toronto.
The Confederation Act of 1867 came
| into force on July 1st, in that year,
Toronto being divided into East and
! West. In 1872 a Redistribution Act was
| passed and under its provisions the con-
j stituency of Centre Toronto was created
thereby giving the capital of Ontario
three members. In the last Parlia
ment this act was still further amendh
ed by giving West Toronto two repre
sentatives instead of one.

THE OLD ARMOURY,
The History of Ihe SSuiltllng-Tue Troops
wlio Have Occupied It Some hotauae
Reminiscences.
On April 4th, 1895, the Royal Grena
diers vacated their quarters in the old
armoury in Jarvis street, and the build
ing from that date ceased to be used for |
military purposes. The history of the
building is as follows:
Owing to the fact that the roof of the
COMPANY ARMOURY.
old drill shed on Wellington street had
fallen in, about 1875, it was deemed ad
visable by the authorities to provide bet
ter accommodation for our citizen sol
diers. Indeed, at that particular date
so bad was the accommodation that it
is great wonder the various corps were
kept together. Their commanding offi
cers, though, held on. Of course, they
expressed a*t mess and in their orderly
rooms their very decided opinion " that
the service was going to the devil," but
still they stuck to their commands, and
worried the City Council, the Provincial
and Dominion Legislatures, and everyone
else concerned until better quarters were
given them.
Early in 1876 the movement to erect
the armoury took definite shape. The
City Council had before them a petition
for pecuniary aid, which was a.nswered
as is set forth in the following para
graph :
Extract from Report No. 3 of the Stand
ing Committee on Finance and Assess
ment of the Council of the Corporation
of the City of Toronto, February llth,
1876:
" Since the last meeting of the com
mittee they have had referred to them
by the Council the petition signed by
numerous and influential ratepayers, ask
ing that a grant be made towards erect
ing a drill shed for the volunteers. The
committee would suggest to the Council
that the site for the proposed new dr
shed should be left in abeyance for the
present, so as to afford the committee
an opportunity for further conference with
the Government and officers of the volun
teer force. In the meantime, however,
they would recommend that a grant,
not exceeding the sum of $7,500, be made
bv the Council for the purpose indicated.
"The agitation for better quarters was
by no means a new one, but the site
was a vexed question. Some two years
previously to the date referred to in the
resolution just quoted, the City Council
had decided to give a site, where the
armoury was subsequently erected, and.
this decision was adhered to. The City
Council dealt with the matter as is here
related :
Extract from Report No. 7 of the Stand
ing Committee on Finance and Assess
ment of the Council of the Corporation
of the City of Toronto, March 13, 1876 :
" The committee, having had under con
sideration the question of a site for the
new drill shed, are of opinion that the
interest of the city and the convenience
of the volunteer force will be best served
by adhering to the decision arrived at
by the Council of 1874, viz., the appro
priation therefor of the property in rear
of the City Hall, formerly occupied as a
cattle market."
There was some little difficulty at
first, when the site was finally decided
upon, as additional space was required
for the armoury. This slight obstacle was
soon overcome by the action of the (
Comioil. They proceeded as is told m the

sideration a communication from Lieut.-
Col. Otter, stating that it is very desir
able that additional laud, to the north
of that already set apart for a Drill Shed
lite, may be appropriated for an Arm
oury, and beg to recommend that, as
there is no legal difficulty in the way,
an additional ten feet be granted for the
purpose indicated."
The building was at once proceeded
with, the coat being borne by the Gov
ernment. It was provided that, when
ever it should cease to be used for mili
tary purposes, it should revert to the
city of Toronto.
In March, 1877, the Queen s Own, then
under command of Lieut.-Col. Otter, and
the 10th Royals, under Lieut.-Col Boxall,
took up their quarters in the Armoury,
and remained there uninterruptedly un
til April 4th, 1895. Of course, in 1880,
when the 10th were reconstructed on
the resignation of Lieut.-Col. George
Alexander Shaw, and a practically new
regiment organized under Lieut.-Col.
Graeett and Major Dawson, there was
a nominal change, but, in so far
as the quarters were concerned,
the changes in the officering and
nomenclature of the corps did
not affect anyone. They were the
headquarters of Toronto s scarlet-coated
regiment, when it was the 10th Royals,
and the public took no interest iu the i
fact that the corps had changed its name
to that of the Royal Grenadiers.
The commanding officers of the Queen s
Own during their occupancy of the Ar
moury were lieut.-Cols. W. D. Otter,
A. A. Miller, D. H. Allan and R. B.
Hamilton. Those of the 10th and the
Grenadiers have been Lieut.-Cols. Box-
all,W. Stollery, G. A. Shaw,/HL J. Grasett,
G. D. Dawson and James Mason. Of the
officers belonging to the Queen s Own,
who were in the regiment when it was
first quartered there were the command
ing officer, Major Delamere, and Quar
ter-Master and Honorary Capt. Heakes.
Of course there were no officers in the
Grenadiers who were there in 1877, the
whole of the old officers of the 10th be
ing retired in 1880.
On March 30, 85, marched out from the
drill hall for service in the North-west
250 men each from the Queen s Own and
the Grenadiers. They departed amid
Buch a scene of excitement as has only
been equalled once or twice in the his
tory of the city, and has never been sur-
passed, excepting when th^y returned
rather less than four months later.
The officers belonging to the Queen s
O\m who went to the North-west were:
Lleut.-Colonel A. A. Miller.
, Major- D. H. Allen.
Adjutant Capt. J. M. Delamere.
Surgeons Drs. Leslie and Wm. Nat-
tress.
Paymaster and Quartermaster. R.
Heakes.
Captains Thomas Brown, P. D. Hughes,
I. C. McGee, W. C. McDonald, H. E.
Kersteman.
Lieutenants A. T. Scott, R. J. Cas-
sels, H. Beck and C. F. Gunther.
Second Lieutenants H. W. Mickle, A.
B. Lee, I. George and G. H. Baird.
Of those officers Major Delamere, Drs.
Leslie and Nattress, Major McGee and
Capts. Gunther and A. B. Lee were
still in the corps on March 31st, 1895.
The Grenadiers were officered as fol
lows :
Lieut. -Col onelH. J. Grasett.
Major George D. Dawson.
Adjutant Capt. F. F. Manley.
Surgeon Dr. Ryerson.
Quartermaster Lieut. Lowe.
Captains F. A. Caston, James Mason,
0. L. Spencer, C. G. Haraton.
Lieutenants D. M. Howard. A. M. Irv
ing, W. O. Fitch, G. P. Eliot.
Second Lieutenants A. ~C7 Gibson, Jno.
D. Hay, F. M. Michie, John Morrow.
When they quitted the old Armoury,
remaining in the Grenadiers ot the
above were Lieut.-Col. Mason, Major
Hay, Capts. Caston, A. M. Irving, Ad
jutant Gibson, Surgeon G. S. Ryersou
and Capt. Eliot, the quartermaster.
The old, and" in many respects most in
convenient, drill shed was the scene
of many a pleasant gathering and many
notable excursions were made; by
both regiments to various cities and
towns. From that place as their starting
point the "boys in green" and "the lads
in scarlet " many times sallied forth
"With their guns upon their shoulders
And their bayonets by their sides,"
not to "capture some fair ladies, and
make of them their brides," but to have
"two hours drill and ten hours divil-
ment" in Montreal, Kingston, Ottawa,
London and other places, and if reports
are true they "on those days did their
duty."
The Queen s Own farewell parade was
the strongest on record, more than 650
bayonets, and the Grenadiers likewise
made a record attendance.

CHAPTER XLI.
SCARBORO S CENTENNIAL
Those Who Settled the Township Their
Straggles nnd Difficulties Keiitlii licences
of the Century,
Wednesday and Thursday, June 17th
a-nd 18th, 1896, were red letter days in
the history of Scarboro township, for
they were the two days which the in
habitants of that thriving municipality
set apart whereon to celebrate the hun
dredth year of the settlement of that
part of this fair Province of Ontario.
Just a century since one David Thom
son, who was the youngest of three
brothers named respectively Archibald,
Andrew and David, who were sons of
Archibald Thomson, a small landed pro
prietor and also a tenant farmer in the
County of Dumfries, Scotland, took up
his abode on what was then forest land
near where now stands St, Andrew s
Presbyterian church, and fixed upon it
as the future home of himself and his
wife. No house stood there, no place
other than the open air, was there
where he could lay his head, so he and
two or three others at once set to work
.to fell the trees with which to con
struct a dwelling house. This was ac
complished within a few days, not,
though, without increasing labour and
peril from the wolves which then in
fested that part of the country. As soon
as ever the house was built David Thom
son was joined by his wife, Mary, like
himself a native of the " land of brown
heath and shaggy wood," and there for
years they dwelt until a more suitable
.dwelling could be erected.
For seven months Mrs. Thomson never
saw the face of another female, and
when she did see one of her own sex
that woman was not of her " ain coun-
tree," but an Indian. The sight though
was a gladsome one, and though Mrs.
Thomson s visitor was unable to speak
a word of English, and Mrs. Thomson
was equally ignorant of the Indian
tongue, they were able by the subtle
instinct inherent in woman s nature to
understand that the visit was pleasure-
able to both. Years afterwards Mrs.
Thomson used to relate what pleasure
this chance visit of the Indian squaw
gave her.
Very shortly after David Thomson
settled in> Scarboro came not only his
brother Archibald, but members of the
Johnston, Elliot and Walton families,
all of whom have now many descendants
in the township, in Toronto and in
many different places.
Archibald Thomson was a U. E. Loyal
ist, and first settled in Kingston about
1786, after the revolutionary war, he
having emigrated from Scotland to the
American colonies about the yeaf 1770.
He was a builder, and built in Kingston
the first Episcopal church erected in
that city.
When he settled in Scarboro , at the
close of the century, he took to farming.
The Johnstons, Elliots, Waltons,
Littles, and other of the pioneer set
tlers all were farmers, and in iflany
cases their descendants still hold til#
land which their great grandfathers
cleared nearly a hundred years ago.
David Thomson died aged 71, on June
22nd, 1834, and his widow on November
8th, 1847, aged 80. On her tombstone
in St. Andrew s churchyard she is
spoken of as the " Mother of Scar
boro ."
The graveyard adjoining St. Andrew s
church, where David Thomson and his
wife lie buried, and where other " fore
fathers of the hamlet sleep " well re
pays an hour s stroll among its tomb
stones and grassy knolls. It contains at
least one hundred stones to the
memory of different members of the
Thomson family. Besides these just
mentioned, though, there are great
numbers of others. In the eastern por
tion of the ground lies James Richard
son, who died August 27th, 1825. Many
of this worthy s descendants were at
the celebration.
Close to James Richardson lies John
Skelton, another pioneer, who was born
in 1772, and died in 1856. Near John
Skelton reposes John Thomson, a cousin
of David s. He was born in Scotland in
1782, came to Canada in 1796, and set
tled over the Don the same year on the
river s eastern bank. He was noted as
the man who carried the declaration
of war in 1812 for General Brock from
York to Penetanguishene. The whole
journey was on foot, and Thomson was
accompanied only by an Indian guide.
John Thomson died in 1873, aged 91
years.
Besides these, there are the graves of
Robert Johnston, who died in 1833, aged
75. He was all but contemporary with
David Thomson in Scarboro . William
Devenish, born in 1772, died in 1856;
Alexander Neilson, died aged 91, in
1850. He came from Lanarkshire, in
Scotland, and left children, grand
children and great grandchildren. Then
there is Thomas Walton s tomb. He was
born in 1779, settled in Scarboro in
1818, died in 1852, "leaving over 100
descendants." Of other old pioneers
may be noted John Thorn, born in 1791,
died 1877, and Andrew Paterson, who
116

died on March 15th, 1884, in his 87th
year.
The day was everything that could
be desired for an outdoor celebration,
such as was that of Scarboro s centen
nial. Though it was very hot, there
was just enough breeze to temper the
sun s rays, and there was nothing to
interfere with the enjoyment of those
who came from every part of the town
ship, from Toronto and from distant
parts of the country. Men and women
were there who had never seen the
place before, but were drawn to the
spot, being as they were the grandchil
dren, great grandchildren, or even a
generation later than that, of those who
lived, worked and died in the township
a century previously.
The day s proceedings began with a
service in St. Andrew s church at 10.30,
when addresses were delivered by Revs.
D. B. Macdonald, Drs Fletcher and
Ball. These addresses were devoted
principally to a comparison of the past
with the present and to reminiscences
of religious efforts made in the town
ship in its earlier days. Dr. Fletcher
for eleven years was the Presbyterian
minister at St. Andrew s.
Following the service came dinner,
and then a public meeting was held,
commencing about two o clock, in a
large marquee, capable of seating about
COO people, erected in the field to the
west of the churchyard, opposite the
site of David Thomson s house. On that
particular spot stood a tall flagstaff,
from which the British flag floated.
A choir no less than 250 strong, un
der the leadership of Mr. Stouffer, ren
dered the hymn " Before Jehovah s
Awful Throne," and then prayer was
offered by the Rev. G. W. Stephenson,
followed by another hymn from the
choir.
Rev. D. B. Macdonald presided, and
on the platform were: Messrs. John
Richardson, M.P.P., Simpson, Rennie,
Rev. Father Gallagher, J. Chisholm,
Dr. McDiarmid, Leyi Anniss, J. A.
Scarlett, James Ley, William Helliwell,
J. McLeod, G. Secor, F. Armstrong,
W. Oliver, J. Gibson, J. Buchanan,
James Weir, James Stirling, A. W. Mal
colm, J. Thomson, D. Thomson, T.
Thomson, J. Chester, Fred Reesor, P.
Reesor, W. Mason, R. Armstrong, T.
Armstrong, C. J. Clark, George Elliott,
Rev. J. A. Brown, and scores of others.
Rev. D. B. Macdonald first said a
few words and then called on Mr. John
Richardson, M.P.P., who spoke of Scar-
boro past and present, and of what
great cause they ail had for th ank-
fulnesa at the great progress the town
ship had made, not only from what it
was one hundred years ago, but in
their own time. In concluding he hoped
" that all Scarboro men would live so
that the world would be better for
having known them."
He was followed by Mr. Rennie, whose
address was principally taken up by
contrasting the state of agricultu; il
labour with what it was when he beg tn
farming 50 years ago.
Then followed . other addressea by
Messrs. James Ley, Rev. J. A. Brown,
Dr. McDiarmid and Levi Anniss.
" Rule Britannia " by the choir, lustily
joined in by the audience followed the
speeches, then came the National An
them and the meeting concluded with
prayer by the Rev. Father Gallagher.
The second and last day of the Scar
boro centennial celebration was an un
qualified success, and was, if possible,
an improvement on the first day. Thfi
weather was absolutely perfect, a trifle
too warm, possibly, yet glorious sun
shine, which caused the hundreds of
visitors to appreciate all the more
highly the leafy glades and cool spots
to be found on the banks of the stream
beside which David Thomson pitched
his tent one hundred years ago.
It would be impossible to form even
an estimate of the numbers present.
There were certainly three, perhaps
even four, thousand. The vast driving
sheds near St. Andrew s church were
crammed with vehicles, certainly two
hundred of them. Amos Thomson s barn
and yard presented the appearance not
so much of a quiet farm yard as of a
country hotel on market day, which
was doing a thriving business. Down
the lanes, up the lanes, in every fence
corner, nay, even in the churchyard it
self, were rigs stationed or horses
tethered.
As on Wednesday, the day s proceed
ings commenced with divine service in
St. Andrew s church, when speeches ex
pressing thankfulness for the past and

Rev. Dr. McGillivray, of Kingston,

delightfully, and the congregation was
simply enormous.
About 2.30 arrived the Lieutenant-

Law and Mr. T. C. Patteson. He was

spoke, dwelling on the way in which
history was made. Then came more
speeches, and at 5.15 " Auld Lang

astic meeting ever held in Scarboro
came to an end. Sports followed, and
the celebration concluded with cordial
handshakings, embraces and mutual
congratulations.
SCHOONKR ANN BROWN.
The chairman then called on his
Honour the Lieutenant-Governor to
address the meeting, who in a brief
but happy speech spoke of the progress
Scarboro had made in the last century.
His Honour in his reminiscences told,
one very amusing story of a former
resident of the township, Rev. Mr. Mc
Dowell. The clergyman was a bit of a
"sport," and liked a good horse and
always rode one. Well, one day he was
riding along and he met a certain Mr.
Frazer, who had just been made a ius-
"ice of the peace. The newly-made J.P.
:ook upon himself to rebuke the parson
or riding a horse, saying " His Master
,vas meek and lowly, and rode upon an

THE SCHOONER "ANN BROWN."
An Old Tlinc Stoue Hooker that baa had a
Checkered Career.
There are few vessels in the stone
j trade but what have centre-boards. But
the Ann Brown, although shei ihas been
a stone hooker for forty years, is an
exception to this rule, having a stand-
i ing keel, and when loaded drawing;
1 about six feet of water. This at once
: shows those acquainted wiith stone-hook
ers and their ways of working that
she was not built for: the trade she is
now engaged in. And in truth, she was
not. The Ann Brown was built and
intended for trading on thd upper lakes

with the Indians, and is one of the
pioneer traders m those regions ; her
history has been a chequered one, and
not without interest in its, way.
The Ann Brown was built about sixty
years ago at the corner ot Front and
Bay streets, by a day labourer, who
worked at her in his spare time and in
the evenings after his day s work was
done. His wife lent him all the assist
ance she possibly could, and received the
reward of having the vessel named
after her. The vessel was launched from
where she was built, for at that time
the Esplanade was simply the bottom
of the bay, and the water came right
up to Front street. She was only about
thirty tons burden, yet small as thus
appears now, ehe was considered a good-
sized vessel then. She was rigged as a
schooner, and, like all the Kchoonera
of those days, carried a square fore*
topsail and top-gallantsail.
For three years she traded success
fully on Lake Huron and Georgian Bay
with the Indians, but one night, when
she was in the neighbourhood of Mani-
toulin Island, a squall struck the vessel.
fThe captain was in the cabin at the
time, but he abandoned the vessel Ln
such haste that he left $500 behind
him in the cabin locker. Together with
his crew of two men he reached Mani-
toulin Island in the yawl boat. Next
morning to their surprise they saw the
schooner riding at anchor, bottom up,
not far from shore. When she cap
sized the anchor had got clear of the
cat-head, and the chain running out
through the hawse-pipe, had taken
firm hold of a boulder on the bottom,
and so prevented the vessel from
pounding herself to pieces on the shore.
The vessel was righted without very
much trouble and continued to trade
with the Indians for softne time. The
captain found his $500 quite safe, and
on the whole may be considered to have
cofcae off from the adventure very for
tunately.
In 1850 Willia&n Pollock, a veteran
stone-hooker captain, bought the Ann
Brown, but he sold her next year to
Samuel Goldering, one of Toronto s vesr-
sel men. He sailed her for three years
and in 1854 sold her to Abraham Block,
who came out to Canada in 1834 and set
tled down at Port Credit. When he
bought the Ann Brown she was con
sidered an old boat, so she must have
been built before 1840. She has remained
in the Block family ever since her pur
chase from Mr. Goldering, and Thomas
Block now sails her. She was rebuilt
in 1876, but is of practically her original
shape. In 1876 her old transoms, which
were rather square, were removed, and
rounder ones substituted giving the
stern a prettier appearance, and ma
terially improving the vessel s sailing
qualities. When she was built she was
painted black, but she has been paint
ed white with a lead colour bottom
for many years now. Her dimensions
are: Length over all, 36 feet; beam, li
feet; draught when loaded, 6 feet It
is a question whether the Ann Brown
or the Barque Swallow is the older
3ut the former, if not the older, is,
perhaps, the more interesting, both-
Irom her history and from the fact that
her hull is built on the model of a regu
lar sailing vessel, not on that of a scow,
as the Barque Swallow s hull is.
CHAPTER XLIII.
A TERAULAY STREET COTTAGE.
A Reildence Unlit by Robert Milieu orcr
StTentr-flYe years ABO.
About eighty years ago, when our
nineteenth century was in its teens,
Robert Millen emigrated from Belfast
to Canada, and settled in Toronto, or
rather York, for such it was at that
time. He was a carpenter and cabinet
maker, and must have known his trade
thoroughly, for before very long he
was able to send back for his mother
and sisters, and had a comfortable
home ready for them when they ar
rived.
He bought a lot from Dr. Macaulay.
and on this he erected a neat little
cottage, which is now 26 Teraulay
street. Though rather small, this cot
tage was a very pretty one. It was
nicely painted, kept very trim, and the
lintel and door posts were very highly
ornamented by Mr. Millen himself, for
he was a very skillful carver in wood,
and in this connection he is said to
have told his children to igo to St.
Michael s Cathedral, if they wanted to
see a proof of his skill, for he carved
the ornaments of the altar there. The
fanlight above the cottage door waa
composed of many small panes of glass,
set in lead so as to form fancy patterns,
and fastened with brass. Even to-day,
although the old fanlight has been re
placed by another one, by no means so
ornamental, the elaborate carving
above the door and on either side of
it, shows that the little cottage must
have been really beautiful at one time.
The chimney was of such a size as to
easily accommodate the most rotund
Santa Claus without any trouble! and
there used to be two white seats, ona
on either side of the door, but as the
neighbourhood became more thickly
populated, and, we regret to add, it
moral tone became deteriorated, the

seats had to be removed, for they were
too convenient resting places for loafers
and other obnoxious individuals.
This cottage must have been built
seventy-five years ago, at least, if not
earlier, for Mr. Millen s daughters,
Mrs. Wright and Mrs. Manning, to
whom we are indebted for a great
deal of this information, say that their
father lived in the cottage with his
mother and sisters for some time be
fore his marriage, and that they were
both born in the bouse, and one of
them is seventy years old.
As Mr. Millen s family increased, ad
dition after addition was made to the
rear of the cottage, so that it runs
quite a distance back, as may be seen
in the accompanying- drawing. In the
yard at the back of the house Mr.
Millen built quite a large workshop,
which is still standing, and in which

DIRECTORY OF 1846 47-
Toronto s Residents at that l>aJe Changes
in Street Nomenclature Institutions
vtliicli H0 Longer Exist.
Old directories, like old letters, bring
back many mtemories of the past to
those who peruse them some pleasant,
some painful. The Toronto Directory
of 18-Ui looked at in 1896 serves to re-
ca.ll a, very different city to what
exists at the later date. It is not only
that the people have changed, that is
only natural, but the names of the
streets in many cases have also charg-
ed, while hundreds of thoroughfares are
nct.v to be/ found for which we look in
vain in the (directory of 1846. We shall
take no notice of new streets, but
briefly refer to those found in. the di
rectory under a, different name to thp,t
which they now bear. Boulton street,
for instance, is now Pearl street, Caro
line is Sherbourne street, then only ex
tending from the bay to Queen street
east. College avenue has been trans
formed into Queen street Avenue,
Crookshank street is Wilton avenue,
Dummer has been changed to William
street, and Don street no longer exists,
while the houses which stood on it
have been pulled down to effect the
Don Improvements. Hunter s lane is
another vanished street, the present
Hunter street having no connection
with it. March street wag first chnr..g-
ed to Stanley, and is now Lombard
street. Nelson street, formerly known
as Nefw street, running frorn King
street east to Queen street east, now
forms the southern extremity oi Jarvis
street. Palace street was the eastern
portion of wh.a,t is now Front street,
it began a,t the south-east corner of
the Majrket square. Paxk lane is the
present University street, and Sa.yer
has become Chestnut street. William
street in 1846 was that portion of what
is now known as Sirucxe street, extend
ing from Queen street west north
wards. Yorkville has no longer any
existence. It was that portion of the
city now lying to the north of Bioor
stret.

GUIDE TO THE NUMBRES OF THE
HOUSES.
The numbers are those put upon the
houses in chalk, by Mr. George Walton,
in conformity with a plan adopted by
the Corporation, as follows :
All those streets which run the full
length of the City, and cross Yongo
street, are divided into two, east and
west ; the numbers of both divisions
begin at Yonge street, and strike off
east and west ; thus the store of Messrs.
Ridout Bros., Is No. 1 King street east ;
and that of Messrs. Sutherland, the op
posite corner, is No. 1 King Street west;
the next houses each way, are Nos. 3
east and west, respectively the odd
numbers being on that side, and the
even ones on the opposite ; thus Betley
& Brown s establishment is No. 2 King
street east ; and that of Messrs. Lyns.s
& Brown, No. 2 King street west, and
so on.
. In all the streets running in the
same direction as King, although not
crossing Yonge street, the numbers
begin at the end nearest Yonge street,
and rise as they advance east or west.
In all ins streets running east and
west, parallel with the Bay, the odd
numbers are on the north side, and the
even ones on the south ; and in all those
running north and south, at right
angles with the former, the odd num
bers (beginning at the end at or nearest
the Bay) are on the west side, and the
even ones on the east.
By a plan of the Corporation, where
vacant lots occur, a given space is al
lowed for a number, to prevent any
disturbance of the order arising from
the erection of new houses upon such
lots. In some instances, this plan has
not been strictly adhered to ; indeed it
was almost impossible for a person,
without accurately measuring the
ground, to place the numl>ers properly ;
but they are sufficiently correct for all
the purposes of this work.

CHAPTER XLVI.
EXECUTIONS IN TORONTO-
The First Man Executed Strange Scene on
the Scaffold The Klnuear ami Other Mur
dersSome Sad Memories.
Among the many emigrants who
arrived in the infant town of York
between the years 1793 and 1807
\vas a young Irish tailor, named John
Sullivan. He was accredited with being
a good workman, but was very ignorant
and dissipated. In the beginning of the
year he fell in with a man named Plan-
uery, who was nicknamed "Latin Mike,"
because of his penchant for making Latin
quotations, learned probably at church.
The two occasionally got on the sprej
together. In June, 1798, Flannery
wrote out an order for thie3 shillings
and ninepeuce, and put the name of one
Fisk to it, then prevailed upon Sullivan
while he was intoxicated, to get the
order cashed. They then spent the money
iu whiskey, and Flanuery finding that
the forgery had been found out, fled
across the lake, leaving poor illiterate
John Sullivan to pay the penalty. The
latter was arrested, pleaded not guilty,
but was convicted of having uttered the
note, knowing it to have bean a forgery,
and was sentenced to death. He was
confined in the "old log jail," a primi
tive looking structure situate on the
south side of King street, on the site of
the Leader building, nearly opposite To
ronto street, until about October 11,
when he was led into the yard, the place
of execution. The scal foU cousLvt- d of
two pieces of scantling bet upright with a
stout cross-piece nailed, over which
a rope was thrown, while one end
was held by the executioner, a man
named McKuight, the other was adjust
ed in a noose around the doomed man s
neck. The common, for the whole vicinity
was but sparsely settled, was crowded
by men, women and children, who were
dressed up in holiday attire and looked
as if they intended to thoroughly enjoy
the occasion. At a given signal tl.e hang-
nrin pulled on the rope, and with a sud-
deii jerk suspended Sullivan in the air.
It w,as but for a moment, however, the
rope having broken or the knot having
got twisted. The executioner coolly pro
ceeded to readjust the rope, and as he
finished Sullivan as coolly exclaimed,
"McKnight, I hope to goodness you ve
got the rope all right this time." And
the ix his soul was launched into eternity,
without prayer, and without hope, for
having uttered a forged order for less
than a dollar.
Three years after the above occurrence
the Stotenburg brothers began to trouble
the neighbours by their depredations,
and finally they were arrested and con
victed on a charge of having btoleu two
horses from Mr. Thomas Bright, uncle
of Mr. Thomas Bright, who for thirty-
five years was an official of
the County of York. The brothers were
sentenced to death, and every prepara
tion was made for the execution, but on
the day previous to that on which they
were to be hanged a reprieve arrived,
and they were allowed to spend their re
maining years in prison.
In 1816 the next murder occurred in
"Muddy York," the criminal being a far
mer named Elijah Dexter, and his victim
James Vanderburg. The two men had a
quarrel, and for several months were
deadly enemies. Finally, on the 8th or
9th of July, the two met on
Yonge street, near the Rosedale ravine,
and after an exchange of some hot word*
and a blow given by Vanderburg, Dex
ter presented a gun and shot Vander
burg dead on the spot. There was a
great deal of excitementt over this trial,
many being of the opinion that Dex
ter acted in self-defence. However, he
was bonvicted, and was sentenced to die
on the 10th August following. A scaf
fold, the first proper one that had
j ever been built in the neighbourhood,
was erected, and on the day of the exe
cution Dexter was led forth by the jailer,
the Rev. John (afterwards Bishop)
Strachan accompanying him. There waa
a great crowd of people surrounding the
yard, and when Dexter was led out a
great cheer went up. Farmers had driven
their families for miles to witness the
sight, and business for the time was en
tirely suspended. When Dexter reached
the foot of the scaffold he paused, and,
eyeing the dread structure, solemnly
shook his head. The jailer tried to pre
vail upon the doomed man to ascend,,
but the latter firmly refused. Rev. John
Strachan then approached, and in a ten
der, sympathetic voice exclaimed, "Oh,
Mr. Dexter, do please come up; do come
up, please." But Mr. Dexter remained
obdurate, and the jailer was in a quan
dary, not wishing to use force on such
a solemn occasion. However, a happy
thought struck him, and procuring a horse
and cart, placed Dexter in the vehicle
with his back to the scaffold, and con
veyer) him under it. The noose was then
adjusted around his neck, and when all
wa< ready the horse was lashed, and,
starting forward, left the unfortunate
murderer hanging by the neck. When
the jail yard was being extended, some
time afterwards, the remains of a man
, were found in a pine box, and they were
; :;>po?ed to be those of either Sullivan
or Dexter.

For some years after the execution of
Dexter things in this district were very
quiet, but on the morning of the 15th (
February, 1819, the community was hor- j
rified by hearing of a most diabolical !
murder which occurred near "Whitby. The
murderer was a Frenchman named
De Benyon, a dissipated farm hand,
who lived in a log cabin on a side
road. With him lived a step-son about
13 years of age, and one bitterly cold
night this demon first turned his step
son out of the house, and when he crawl
ed in half frozen, De Benyon tied him
in front of the fireplace, and, piling more
wood on the fire, literally roasted him to
death inch by inch. When the poor lad s
legs were burned almost black and were
unable to support him, the inhuman step
father pushed him forward into the flames
until his hair caught fire, and in this
position he was roasted, the murderer all
the time gazing ooa his work. De Benyon
attempted to escape, but was captured
near the Don, where the G. T. R. bridge
now crosses the river, and was sum
marily disposed of by being hanged to
a tree. This is the only case of Judge
Lynch which is known to have occur
red in Ontario.
In the year 1828 Charles French and
James Christie were hanged in the rear
of the second, or what was then known
as the new, jail, near the corner of _King
and Toronto streets, opposite the site of
tbe old log jail, and on the former site
of the establishment of Messrs. Rice
Lewis & Son. There were present at the
execution over ten thousand people, and
the greatest excitement prevailed. They
ascended to the platform together, and
their souls entered into eternity simul
taneously.
Charles French was a printer, in the
employ of William Lyon Mabcenzie, and,
but for his sporting proclivities, would
have made a steady workman. He was
in the habit of attending the theatre on
Church street regularly, and one even
ing meeting with a man named Thos.
Joslin, tbe two had some drinks togeth
er, and before the performance was con
cluded bad a quarrel. The fight was re
newed near Colborne street, in which
French drew a pistol from his pocket and
deliberately shot Joelin. He then ran
away and took refuge in a tavern on
Queen street west, where he was arrest
ed. A great deal of influence was used
to secure his acquittal, but in spite of
thte influence he was convicted and sen
tenced to death. Wm. Lyon Mackenzie
did everything in his power to get a re
prieve, and he was not the- only one who
Struggled for the unfortunate printer.
Attorntey-General Robinson and Dr.
Strachan, of the Executive Council, refus
ed a reprieve, and upon this being
announced, the night before the execu
tion Sir Peregrine Maitlaud, the Govern
or, roused up his butler, a man named
Raper, in the middle of the night, and
succeeded in securing a midnight session
of the Executive Council. Still the re
prieve was not granted, and French went
to his death without a murmur or ap
parent fear.
James Christie and his wife lived with
a farmer named Wood, near Whitchurch,
on Yonge street, but, determining to
go to the States, the farmer paid him
all his wages. Mr. Wood also offered to
allow his eon Charles, a boy about 14
years of age, to drive him into town.
The offer was accepted, and the three
started in a "waggon, with a pair of
horses. Not satisfied with his own prop
erty, Christie envied his late employer
his horses, and determined to become
possessed of them, and so determining,
concocted a devilish plan. When they
arrived at a place known as the Oak
Ridges, Christie turned to the boy and
refmarked :
" Charles, do you see that squirrel over
there ? Let s go and get a shot at him."
The unsuspecting lad jumped from the
waggon with his gun, and when they
had travelled a short distance through
the woods he bent forward to get a shot,
when Christie stole up behind him and
knocked his brains out with the butt of
hie rifle. The inhuman monster then
threw the body behind a decayed log
and returned to his wife, making some
excuse to account for the boy s absence.
He then came to town, drove around by
Hamilton to Lewiston, and crossed to
the United States. Meanwhile the mother
of the lad, when he did not return next
day, became anxious, and set out on
horseback to find him. Upon arriving
at the Oak Ridges the horse would go
no further, but attempted to break
through the fence. At first the mother
endeavoured to make her horse go ahead,
but finally she gave him. the reins, and
leaping the fence the faithful and intelli
gent beast carried her to where her son s
body had been hidden. Bills containing
a description of Christie were sent in
every direction, and finally the murderer
was captured in Albany by the jailer,
who noticed him driving about with the
stolen team of horses. He was brought
back, tried, when the whole plot was
revealed, found guilty and was hang
ed at the same time as French.
On the 14th December, 1837, Julia
Murdoch was hanged for having wilfully
murdered her mistress. The murderess
was a woman about 21 years of age,

unmarried, aiid worked as a servant for
a Mrs. Harriet Heury. She was well
thought of by the family, and when Mrs.
Heury became ill Julia was called in to
wait on her. For a time everything
progressed favourably with the invalid,
but one evening ehe died very suddenly.
At the time it was not suspected that
Mre. Henry had been murdered, but
shortly after Julia Murdoch was dis
covered selling some silver spoons and
other articles, which had belonged to her
mistress. .She was arrested for larceny,
and it was then that the first suspicion
of foul play was entertained. It cannot
now be ascertained if Mrs. Henry s re-
mainh were buried and the body exhumed,
or whether the burial had not taken
place; but at any rate, a post-morteni
examination was made, when it was dis
covered that Mrs. Henry had been
poisoned with arsenic. The girl was
charged with the crime, and although
ehe strenuously denied all knowledge of
the poisoning, yet it was brought home
to her. The poison had been mixed in
eome fish which had been prepared for
dinner. The girl Murdoch denied her
guilt. The day of execution was cold,
snow on the ground, and the scaffold
was erected on Toronto street, where
now stand the York Chambers, near the
old jail. The day before her execution
ehe stated that she considered the
dreadful circumstances in which she was
placed as a merciful arrangement of
Divine Providence for the purpose of lead
ing her to a true repentance of her
misimprovement of early religious ad
vantages. She readily submitted to be
pinioned. The Christian Guardian of
that date Bays that the utmost decorum
marked the conduct of the vast assem
blage of person;* who witnessed the fatal
result "It was, however, exceedingly re
volting," says the Guardian, "to see
among the spectators a large number
of females." On the day of her execu-
tioa fully four thousand people congre
gated about the jail yard, a large!
proportion of them being women and
children. The prisoner was dreadfully
agitated, and as she walked to the gal
lows leaned for support on her spiritual
comforter s arm. When she arrived at
the platform she appeared to regain cour
age, and after prayer had been offered
up she knelt on the trap-door, and was
hurried into eternity. A portion of Mc-
Grath s troopers surrounded the scaffold,
and by hard work succeeded in keeping
the crowd away from the structure. This
was the first and only woman hanged
in this district. .^
The Christian Guardian of April, 1838,
contains the following: account of thf
execution of Samuel Louut and Peter
Matthews, in the presence of an im
mense concourse of spectators. The Guar
dian says : "The drop was erected in
the open space between the jail and
court house. Early in the morning per
sons began to assemble to witness the
awful exit of the unhappy men who had
forfeited their lives by the prominent
part which they took in the late un
natural rebellion. A highly creditable
degree of commiseration for them ap
peared to prevail almost universally, but
not the slightest indication was given
of any intention to interrupt the admin
istration of the laws. An armed force
composed of the volunteer companies in
the city was in readiness under the di
rection of the civil authorities to pre
serve order; but we are happy to say
their interference was not required. The
criminals were attended to the place of
I execution by the Revs. James Eichard-
son and John Beatty, the former of whom
offered np an impressive prayer on the
scaffold, in which the unhappy men ap
peared to join, highly suited to their
awful circumstances. It affords us un
feigned satisfaction to state that we
learn from the rev. gentlemen who at
tended them subsequently to their con
demnation, that they were brought to
acknowledge the enormity of their of
fence, and with every indication of true
repentance to acquiesce in the justice of
their sentence. During the last few days
of their earthlj- existence they appeared
to possess a considerable measure of re
ligious comfort and hope."
Their bodies were eommitted^to their
friends and were interred in the
Potter s field and afterwards in
the Necropolis. Petitions praying
for pardon were presented to the
Lieut.-Goveruor but he declined to inter
fere on the ground that Louut was the
leader of the first band of rebels who
marched to Montgomery s, beyond York-
ville, on the night that Col. Moody was
murdered, and that Matthews was the
leader of the party who burned the pro
perty of Mrs. Washburn, attempted to
burn the Don bridge, killed a. man and
fired at a woman. This statement was
afterwards declared disproved.
On July 30, 1843, Thos. Kinnear, a
Scotch gentleman of good family and
fortune was found brutally murdered in
his home at Richmond Hill, and suspicion
fell on one of the stablemen named James
McDermott, and a female servant named
Grace Marks. The murder was discover
ed by Mr. Francis Boyd, who was going
to Kinnear s to keep an appointment.
On going to the house he saw signs of a

struggle, and upon investigation found
Kiuoear s body in the cellar. He also
found the body of the housekeeper, Ann
Montgomery, in a wash tub, doubled up,
with a handkerchief tied over her mouth,
showing that elie had been strangled ,
Kinuear was in the rity on Saturday and
had drawn money from the bank, and
was murdered that night on his return.
The fact having been ascertained that
McDermott and Grace Marks had taken
a eteamer for Lewiston, Mr. F. C. Cap-
reol, an intimate friend of Mr. Kinnear s,
engaged another eteamer and with Mr.
Kiugsmill, the High Bailiff, left Toronto
at 1 a. m. on Monday in pursuit. Laud
ing at Lewistou they eoou had possession
of both prisoners. At the trial conclusive
evidence was brought against McDer
mott and he was sentenced to death,
which sentence was carried out at the
old jail on Berkeley street. Grace
Marks was convicted as an accessory and
was sentenced to the penitentiary for
life, but some few years afterwards re
ceived a pardon and went to the United
States.
If Wm. Turney had not received a
good education he probably never would
have been hanged, bat his fondness for
letter writing betrayed him as a miser
able murderer, and he expiated his
crime on the gallows in the year 1847.
at the old jail on Berkeley street, hoot
ed and jeered at by a crowd of over
three thousand people. The executed man
wa a discharged soldier, and resided
at Markham, where he spent the greater
portion of his time in consuming bad
whiskey and quarrelling with his neigh
bours. One day he called at a store
kept by a Mr. Logan, and instructed
the clerk, a man named Walter McPhil-
lips. to draw him a jar of whiskey. The
latter stooped down to the barrel to
get the liquor, and while in this posi
tion Turney quietly clipped up behind him
and struck him on the back of the head
with a heavy club, killing him instant
ly, his brains being scattered over the
barrel. Turney then stole about $11
from the till and escaped from the store
unnoticed. Shortly afterwards the mur
der was discovered, out at the time the
authorities were at a loss on whom to
fix the guilt. Turney, who had
been drinking to excess, was suspected,
and was taken into custody. A few days
before the trial he managed to have
delivered to his wife a letter, in which
he informed her that she would find the
money he had taken from Logan under
the floor of a water closet on the prem
ises, and to use it in his defence. The
wife was unable to read, and took the
letter to n neighbour to read for her.
This neighbour at once informed the
authorities of the contents, and on these
statements, backed by a chain of circum
stantial evidence, Turuey was adjudged
guilty, and suffered on the gallowe, along
with Jamea Hamilton, another murderer.
In his dying speech Turuey stated that
he had been a trooper in Sir De La<\\
Evans corps in Spain, and stated that he
aiil four other troopers some years be
fore went to the house of a Spanish
grandee, and forced the wife and two
daughters to get them something to eat.
While- they were carousing one of the
troopers attempted to kiss one of the
daughters, and the son resented the in
sult and struck him. The troopers, half
crazed with liquor, then murdered the
whole family and escaped.
I;i 1846 Robert Hamilton hired out to
a iarmer named Noah Eaton, who lived on
lot 9, 5th concession of Toronto Town
ship, new survey, and was well thought
of. He effected an arrangement that he
was to supply Eaton with all the neces-
sariee of life, keep him in comfort on the
farm, pay him 10 annually, in
exchange for which he was to have con-
troi of the property, and at the death
of Eaton was to receive the title deeds.
Thej were getting along nicely until
Kobert one day came to the city, be
came Hi with cholera, which was at that
time prevalent, and in two days died.
Hi;> brother James conveyed the news
of Robert s death to Mr. Eaton, and
after some trouble stepped into Robert s
place. But failing to receive the stipu
lated 10 hie neglected his business,
and Mr. Eaton became dissatisfied with
him. One day Hamilton came to the city,
and, securing the companionship of a
young man named Brown, sou of a black
smith, proceeded to the residence of Mr.
Eaton. After talking with the old man
foi a few minutes the two young men
left, but they had not proceeded far down
thb road before Hamilton turned and ran
back to the house, saying that he had
forgotten something. When James en
tered the house Mr. Eaton was
in the act of stirring up the fire. Pick
ing up a poker, James struck bis vic
tim on the head, the blow stunning
him. The would-be murderer fled,
leaving the old man s body lying across
the red-hot coals. This occurred on Sat
urday afternoon, and as the neighbours
cculd see no smoke coming from the chim
ney, they forced open the door, and
found Eaton s body lying on the fire
place, burned to a crisp. Hamilton then
ioined Brown, but the latter, upon hear-
IIIF of the murder, became frightened,
and fled with his companion to Trafal
gar Township, where they were arrest-

ed. They were tried in the Court House
on Church street, when Brown was de
clared innocent, and Hamilton was con
demned to death, he being hanged along
with Turney. On the gallows he could
hardly stand, and he died a pitiable
spectacle.
On the 14th day of November, 1849,
Robert Smith, a private in the Rifle
Brigade, stationed at the Old Fort,
was hanged at the jail on Front
and Berkeley streets, for the
murder <TS Richard Eastwood, a pri
vate in the same regiment. It appears
that these two men were not on friendly
terms, and were continually "chaffing"
each other. Eastwood was spoken of as
a well-behaved soldier, but Smith was
somewlmt dissipated, and of a jealous
disposition. It was proposed to draft
Eastwood into the Royal Canadian
Rifles, and upon hearing this on the
13th August previously, Smith said
sneeringly to the other, " So you ve
got to go in with the Canucks!
I m, well glad we re rid
of you." Eastwood made some
retort to the effect that Smith was
not fit to be in a Canadian regiment,-
and then left the guard room. He re
turned in a-bout an hour, and as he en
tered the room Smith got behind him,
and, raising his rifle, deliberately shot
him through the back, the bullet pass
ing through the unfortunate man s body,
and lodging in the bed-post. Smith was
immediately taken into custody, and was
handed over to the civil authorities.
He was tried, convicted and sentenced
to death, the sentence being carried oujt
on November 14. Before his execution
Smith made a confession, blaming whis
key as th cause of hia ruin. He ascended
the scaffold with a firm step, and when
he reached the platform he drew up to
" attention," and saluted the great
crowd beneath him, who were shoving
and jostling one another to get near the
doomed man. He muttered something in
audible, and then, turning to the fatal
trap door, drew himself up to his full
height, and gave a signal of readiness.
He neither blanched nor quivered, and
looked more like a soldier on parade than
a man about to face his Maker.
On Tuesday, October 24, 1854, Martin
Richard Kehoe was placed on hie trial,
charged with the murder of his wife,
Ellen Kehoe, on the 30th July, 1854. The
trial took place before the late Mr. Jus
tice Burns. The -prisoner resided on
Power street with his wife. The woman s
throat was cut in three places- in such a
manner that it would have been impos
sible for her to have committed the act
herself. No evidence wae called for the
defence. Mr. Dempsey, in defending the
! prisoner, claimed that it was most im-
| probable that in the middle of the day,
! with a slight partition dividing the
| house from the next one, and no prop-
i erty or money to induce the prisoner to
; murder, that Kehce should have commit-
I ted the deed. Mr. Dempsey urged the
! stronger cases of circumstantial evidence
| which had been tried befoie and acquittal
i secured ; he, however, admitted that the
I medical testimony was strong. The jury
I found a verdict of guilty.
On Saturday, November 4th, Kehoe was
placed at the bar and asked what he had
to say prior to sentence. The prisoner
said : " I call upon the Supreme God, be
fore whom I am probably shortly to ap
pear, to acknowledge my innocence. I had
neither hand, act nor part in the matter,
notwithstanding the evidence of the medi
cal gentlemen to the contrary. I know
not how the act was committed. 1
His Lordship The jury have found you
guilty of the crime with which you were
charged, and I have no doubt they came
to a proper conclusion. The crime is
that of murdering her whom you
led to the altar and promised to
love, honour and cherish. There
is no discretion allowed to the
court, no punishment, save one. It is only
by that which your life is forfeited. I can
hold out no chance of mercy this side of
the grave. That could only be thought
of, if a certain kind of evidence was pro
duced in relation to the crime with which
you were charged. But in this matter I
can hold out no hope to you whatever on
this earth. Only this remains with me
to give you time to make your peace with
God. A month, I hope, will be sufficient
for that purpose. To that God now look
for mercy, for there is none to be expect
ed from the offended laws of your coun
try, and I hope and trust that you will
make use of your time, so as to obtain a
complete and successful atonement for all
your misdeeds in this world. Employ your
remaining time in condoning for future
punishment for all your offences, as well
as for this. The sentence of the court
is that you be removed to the common,
jail, and from that, on the 4th December,
you shall be brought to the place of exe
cution, and there hanged until you are
dead.
Upon the conclusion the prisoner again
protested his innocence.
On Monday, 4th December, Kehoe wa
led to execution. The scaffold was erect
ed on the west wall of the old jail on
Front street. The execution was a pub
lic one, and thousands were present, not-
I withstanding the extreme cold weather.
Shortly after 10 o clock Kehoe. accom-

panied by two Roman Catholic clergy
men, the sheriff, the governor of the
jail and others, was pinioned in his cell
and led out for execution. He walked
to the gallows with a firm step and an
unflinching look that betokened none of
the bearing of a hardened criminal, or
a would-be hero, but the demeanour of
a humble penitent. He ascended the steps
which led to the scaffold, and standing
on the front part addressed those assem
bled. He stood boldly forth, with the
air of an injured martyr, and addressed
the people beneath in a voice no way
shaky with emotion. He spoke for sev
eral minutes ; said he was innocent of or
unconscious of having committed the
crime for which he was now about
wrongfully to suffer. He exhorted all
Catholics and others who were present
to pray for his soul and be liberal to
him in their opinion ; spoke of the course
of hie past life as one that should be
guarded against ; thankful to the gover
nor of the jail for his considerate and
suitable treatment ; begged them to be
good men and temperate, and said it
was to liquor he owed his present mis
fortune. Having concluded his " dying
words," which he delivered with a flu
ency and theatrical manner that ill be
fitted the occasion, he bowed his head,
and the executioner immediately covered
him with a cloth, a.djueted the fatal
noose and led him back to the trap door.
Here he knelt down composedly, and the
clergyman bent toward him, and after
he had uttered Koine inaudible words
they retired to the rear of the wood
work. The spring bolt was pulled by
the hangman and Kehoe was in the other
world. While the body dangled in the
air the blood spurted from Kehoe s
mouth and eyes, to the horror of all
present. He confessed to having been
imprisoned in the States for having stab
bed the wife he afterwards murdered.
John O Leary was executed on March
4th, 1859. He had teen tried on the 28th
October, 1858, for the murder of Hugh
Kelly, in the township of Georgina, on
the 26th July previous, but the jury,
being unable to agree after being locked
up for one night, were discharged. Prior
to this trial he attempted to escape from
the jail. Kelly had given evidence fa
vourable to one Cole, who had a law
suit with O Leary, that prompted the
murder, which was accomplished by
stabbing with a dirk. The evidence
was partially circumstantial. Mr.
Justice Hagarty charged the jury to find
him guilty of manslaughter if the evi
dence showed that he had done the sta.b-
biug in the heat of passion and without
premeditation. If he did it coolly and
vindictively they .should bring in a ver
dict of murder, but if they were not con
vinced of his identity they should acquit
him. At the next Assizes he was con
victed at the time, and sentenced by
Mr. Justice McLean. O Leary said Kelly
was on top of him and he pulled out
a knife and struck him in the arm.
Hte had not had a fair trial, as the
Government had refused to pay his
witnesses. On the scaffold he made the
following statement:
" My Dear Friends, As reports are
going abroad in the newspapers that I
have not expressed a contrition for my
sins, neither have I, they say, made any
confession, I beg leave to contradict it
before you all. With my whole heart I
do feel contrition for my sins, and par
ticularly for that crime for whir.li T am
going to offer up my life, and would a
thousand lives if I had them, for what
use is this life for that in the "world
to come ? I also tell you, my dear friends,
that I have made my confession witM
as good a disposition as I am capable
of. And, besides, I rvould not at this
moment change my situation for that of
the Queen of England, because I feel
confident that I am prepared. 1 hope
to meet my Creator with a clear con
science, and therefore I trust in his
great mercy that I will participate in
His glory before the setting of the sun.
1 humbly beg, therefore, my dear friends,
that you will pray to the Lord that the
Lord may have mercy on my soul."
William Fleming was executed on the
same day (March 4, 1859), hour and
scaffold, as John O Leary, for the
murder on (3th December, 1858, of
Thomas Maddigan, or Riordan, by
which name he was better known,
as he had been adopted and
reared by a person of that name. The
murder was committed in the lane in
rear of Mr. Hawkes then residence, on
the north-east corner of Bay and
Wellington streets, now in rear of
Gwatkin s warehouse, where a scuffle
occurred between Maddigan and
Fleming. One, William Scott, rushed be
tween the two, and saw a dirk in the
hands of Fleming. Maddigan fell, and
Scott thought he was drunk, but it was
subsequently discovered that he was
stabbed and was dead. His body was
then conveyed to Welch s tavern, on the
corner of Bay and Wellington streets,
where the party had been drinking pre
vious to the murder. Fleming was after
wards arrested in the Young Canada
saloon, on the corner of Church and Front
streets, though the landlord tried to hide
him. When arrested he feigned drunken
ness. A number of abandoned females,

Fleming, Maddigaii and Scott, were also
arrested. Maddigaii was 18 or 20 years
of age, and a salesman in the employ of
Mr. Laidlaw, King street, dry goods
merchant. Fleming was but 19 years of
age, and wae employed as an operator
by the Montreal Telegraph Company. The
weapon with which the murder was com
mitted was a bowie knife, with an ivory
handle. A coroner s jury found that the
deceased had come to his death by a
stab inflicted by Fleming, and he was
subsequently convicted and executed
on the same scaffold with O Leary.
Strong efforts were made by Alex.
Manning, H. P. DvvigM and others
to get the death sentence commuted, on
the ground that Fleming was so young
and that the blow which caused death
was an accidental one, but they were
unsuccessful. An immense number wit
nessed the dual execution at the old jail,
a large proportion of which were women.
James Brown was executed at the old
jail on Monday, the 10th March, 1862,
for the murder of Mr. J. S. Hogan,
M. P. P. The latter had disappeared
about the 1st December, 1859, and the
{Jovermuent subsequently offered a re
ward for his discovery, or that of his
bod} , and commissioned Detective War-
tell, of the Toronto police force, to trace
his movements. He went to several
American cities, but could find no trace
of him, and the matter was almost for
gotten. About sixteen mouths after hie
disappearance a human skeleton, having
yet some flesh on the bones and envelop
ed in male attire, was found in the
marsh. The clothing was identified as
that of Mr. Hogan, and an abandoned
woman, one of the old Brooks bush gang,
named Ellen McGillick, made a state
ment to Detective Colgau which led to
the arrest of Brown. She stated that she
had witnessed the murder of Mr. Hogan
on the King street Don bridge one night
in December, 1859, by another aban
doned woman named Jane Ward, Brown,
and two other men named Sherrick and
McEutameny, the last-mentioned of iwhoin
had meanwhile died. Brown, Shorrick
and Ward werearrested, and McGillick s
evidence wa,s to the effect that Ward
had struck Mr. Hogau on the head with
a stone tied in a handkerchief, when
Brown and Sherrick robbed him and
threw him into the river. Her evidence
was partially corroborated by Maurice
Ma lone, Dr. Gamble, and others. Police
Magistrate Gurnett committed the three
for trial, which took place before the
late Chief Justice Draper in April, 1861.
Mr. James Doyle, counsel for the prison
er, succeeded in establishing an alibi for
Sherrick, several witnesses swearing thai 1
at the time at which the murder was
alleged to have been committed he wae
living at Clover Hill, 50 miles from To
ronto. The result was that the jury ac
quitted Sherrick and Ward. Mr. Doyle
offered the same evidence to show thafc
McGillick s statement was unworthy of
credence, but the Chief Justice ruled it
out. The jury found Brown guilty, but
Mr. Doyle succeeded in getting a new
trial, when Brown was again found guilty
and sentenced by Mr. Justice Burns to
be hanged on March 16, 1862. The
late Mr. Henry Eccles prosecuted at the
first trial, and the late Chief Justice
Morrison and the late Mr. Richard Demp-
sey at the second. When sentence was
passed upon him Brown declared his inno
cence. He had a dogged and sullen as
pect, which was made more obnoxious
byi a scar on his nose caused l>y (disease.
Hei was born in Loulam, Cambridgeshire,
Eng., and was 32 years of age when pxe-
cuted. He expressed contrition before
hi& death, and declared his innocence un
swervingly to the last, and with such-
earnestness that the ministers who at
tended to him, among whom were Rev.
H. J., afterwards Dean Grasett, and
Revs. Edmund Baldwin and S. J. Boddy,
expressed their belief in his innocence.
He was executed at the old jail, before
an immense concourse of people, whom
he addressed as follows :
" This is a solemn day for me, boys.
I hope this will be a warning to you
against bad company. I hope it will be
a lesson to all young people, old as well
as young, and rich and poor. It ;was
that brought me here to-day to my last
end, though I am innocent of the mur
der I am about to suffer for. Before
my God I am innocent of the murder.
I never committed the murder. I know
nothing of it. I am going to meet my
Maker in a few minutes. May the Lord
have mercy on my soul. Amen. Amen."
The " amen " was echoed by a few
near the scaffold. When he. was launched
into* eternity three or four strong spasm s
shook his frame and then all was over.
The body was delivered at tlu request
of decease:! to Mr. Irish for burial. The
crowd was not as large as that which
witnessed tl:e execution of Fleming aud
O Leary. The fair tex was largely re
presented.
Robert Coulter was convicted on 17th
April, 1883, of having murdered James
Kenny on the night of the 18th November,
1861. and sentenced to he hanged on the
1st June ensuing by the late Chief Justice
Draper. During a light between Coulter
and Kenny, on the south-west corner of
Edward and Yon-ge streets on the night
mentioned, the latter had six ribs broken

and received such further injuries that
he died some days thereafter. It was
proved that the deceased was an habitual
drunkard, and Dr. Sipple swore that he
died from natural causes, while Dr. Aikiiis
gave the opinion that hie death was
caused by inflammation of the lunge, re
sulting from the injuries he received.
Coulter was born in County Ferman
agh, Ireland, and was 35 yeans of age
when executed. He married at 30, and
settled in the village of Angus. Subse
quently he left his wife and came to To
ronto, where he lived a loose aud dissi
pated life. A mistress of his who lived in
Yorkville disappeared, and never was
heard of after, while he was suspected
of killing an Indian about ten years
previous to his execution ; had served
two years in the penitentiary for a mur
derous assault on a policeman, and after
wards joined a gang of horee thieves in
the vicinity of Barrie ; also killed
a man named Coots, of Angus, on the
occasion of a quarrel caused by Coulter s
intimacy with Coots wife. He escaped to
the woods, and, so desperate was he :
known to be, that no one could be got
to follow him, especially as he was known
to be armed with a rifle. Rewards hav- !
ing been offered, he was subsequently ar- :
rested and tried, but, strange to say, i
was acquitted. He was, however, con- j
victed of robbery, and sentenced to 1
three years in the penitentiary therefor,
which vyas commuted to two years, on
the expiration of which he joined the
Brooks bush gang. In the fall of 1861 a \
man named Rebbell died on Centre street,
his death being attributed to a kick re
ceived from Coulter, There was a woman
at the bottom of the Kenuy murder, after
which he escaped to the county of Huron ;
and got married a second time. He then .
went to Michigan, where he was after- !
wards arrested. He was a powerfully*- ;
built man, and died hard. He made no j
confession. Between 2,000 and 3,000 wit- !
nessed the execution, being a much j
smaller crowd than attended that of j
O Leary and Fleming.
William Greenwood, who committed
suicide while under sentence of death,
wa.s convicted of having mnrdere 1
Catharine Walsh at a cottage on the
west side of Sayer st. (now Chestnut), ;
two doors north of Elm street. He was
the late Mr. J. Hillyard Cameron s gar- !
dener, and lived in a cottage on Mr. j
Cameron s grounds, Queen street west,
but subsequently tbe cottage was re- I
moved and his wife went to live with j
her mother on the Kingston road, while j
Greenwood remained at Mr. Cameron s.
Catharine Walsh had also bnc:i a servant
at Mr. Cameron s, but had got married
to one McNuty, who afterwards left her
and went to the States. According to evi
dence of Dr. Aikeas death was caused by
strangulation, the marks of a man s
thumb being visible on deceased s cheek,
as if a hand had been held firmly across
her mouth, until she was quite dead. She
was enciente by Greenwood, which was
proven by one George Stayes, who swore
that she told him so. The body of a child
was also found in the cupboard of the
, house, which was found after the deed
: was done. The medical evidence went to
i show that the child was smothered. He
\ was tried on October 3, 1863, before
! the late Chief Justice Adam Wilson
| and a jury. Mr. Stephen Richards,
Q. C., afterwards Chief Justice,
prosecuted, and Mr. M. O. Cam
eron, afterwards Chief Justice,
; defended the prisoner. Mr. Cam
eron made a lengtby and powerful
speech, and the jury returned a verdict
of not guilty, but he was detained in
custody on the charge of being accessory
to the death of the child of
Agues Marshall. Mr. Duckett, a
coloured man, who lived next
door to where the murder occurred,
swore that the prisoner had a peculiar
: tooth, whereupon Mr. Cameron instruct
ed the pri-iOLer to open his mouth, which
he did, but there was no peculiar tooth.
Mr. Cameron dwelt on this discrepancy,
and it no doubt had a great effect on
the jury. After the trial it was discover
ed that two teeth had been extracted
prior to the trial, one of which might be
the peculiar one. At the next Assizes he
was tried for arson, convicted and sen
tenced to seven years in the penitentiary.
On the 22nd January, 1864, he was
tried for the murder of the child of Agnes
Marshall, and was convicted and sen
tenced to be hanged on the 23rd Febru
ary following. He declare:! that he was
innocent. On the night before the day
fixed for his execution he hanged him
self by means of a towel, thus cheating
the gallow--, as in the De Coursier case.
In order to kill himself he had to crouch
on the floor, the bar to which the towel
Was attached not being sufficiently high
to enable him to produce death other
wise.
John Traviss was convicted of the mur
der of John Johnson, on the 23rd No
vember, 1871, near Queensville, in the
township of East Gwiliimbury. He was
tried here on the 10th and llth of Jan
uary, 1872, before the late Chief Jus
tice Wilson a,nd a jury, which was
locked up all that night, and the trial
concluded next day. He was sentenced
to be hanged on the 23rd February
following. Mr. Kenneth (afterwards
LANDMARKS OF TORONTO.
265
Gounty Judge) Mackenzie prosecuted,
and the late Mr. R. A. Harrison (subse
quently made chief justice) defended the
prisoner, who had shot Johnson in the
back of the neck while they were riding
together in a sleisrh. The motive to
which the murder was ascribed was that
Traviss was engaged, or at least was
in love with one Miss Nicholl, and that
Johnson had effected an estrangement
between them. On being sentenced, he
said : " I have one favour to ask the
sheriff, and that is that I may see my
friends before I go to jail." His request
was complied with. On the 22nd Novem
ber, 1871, Traviss called at Johnson s
lionse, on the 5th concession of East
Gwillimbury, but his victim was not
then at home. That he went there with
the set purpose o! taking Johnson s life
he afterward* admitted on the scaffold.
After he shot Johnson he went to the
house of his sister, Mrs. Wilson, and ex-
ultingly announced that he had ehot
Johnson, and had had his revenge.
Though he was but nineteen years of
nge he was a symmetrical giant, stand
ing six feet two inc aea in his stockings.
On the day prior to the execution there
was a parting scene of a most distress
ing character between Traviss and his
brother-in-law and two sisters, and Miss
Xicholl, for whom he had sacrificed his
life. Before the bolt was drawn he said
it was his wish that all present should
know that it was he who killed John-
won, and that he intended to kill not
only him, but also his wife, and had gone
to his house for that purpose, but God
had saved him from that further crime.
He admitted that it was a, dreadful
thing to do to shoot a man like that.
For himself he was quite resigned to his
fate, ajid felt the hope that he was
going to his God. He felt that Jesus
had hold of one of his arms and his
mother the other, and bid them adieu.
His death was instantaneous, his weight
being over 200 Ibs.
The case of John Williams, of Weston,
is the next on the list. On the night
of the 21st September, 1877, an iinfortu-"
nate woman named Annie Williams, nw
Bennett, was virtually pounded to death
by her drunken husband, John Williams,
in a humble cottage in the vicinity of
Weston. Williams was a Welshman,
who was employed by Mr. Eagle, of W T es-
ton, in making bricks, at a price per
1,000. He was very frequently undefr
the influence of liquor, and when so, in-
Tariably thrashed his poor, patient, hard
working wife, the blows inflicted on her
on the night mentioned having been but
the finishing touch of numerous pound
ings sh had previously received at the
hands of her inhuman husband. Whe
arrested he brutally remarked, " She s
a goner this time." The bod3 r of the un
fortunate woman, when found next moan
ing:, presented a horrible spectacle, hav
ing been pounded black and blue, her
features being 1 smashed out of
recognition. She was the mother
of fifteen children, all living
except one. A man named Stone, who
wns employed by Williams, had an alter
cation wain him in the cottage,
both being driwik, and also a scuffle,
when Stone went to the hay loft near
the cottage, where it was his custom to
sleep. Williams, maddened by his dis
pute with Stone, then turned 011 his un
fortunate wife, and at intervals during
the night bestowed blows and kicks on
i her which caused her death. The chil
dren were powerless to prevent him, and
Stone and one Chapman were lying in
the hay loft hard by stupefied witb
liquor. The actual cause of death was
a rupture of the liver, effected, it ia
surmised, when Williams jumped on
his wife, as stated by a child of ten
der years. He was convicted at the
Assizes neld here on the 29th and 30th
October, 1877, before Chief Justice
Hagarty and a jury, who made a
strong recommendation for mercy. He was
sentenced to be hanged on the 30th
November following. He was executed on
that morning at the jail, being the* sec
ond execution a,t that edifice, that of
Traviss being the first. The hangman on
that occasion, a man named England*
1 scorned to wear a mask. The execution
1 was witnessed by about 150 persons, ad
mitted by passes procured from the
sheriff. At midnight preceding the exe
cution Rev. Mr. Johnston wrote a letter
to Williams children and his friends, at
his dictation, in which he inculcated the
duty of attending church, the violation
of which had brought him to the gal
lows. Some days before the executioi?
his four daughters, only one of whom
was of tender years, bade him a last
and tearful farewell, which was described
by Governor Green as the most affect
ing he had ever witnessed. He was at
tended on the scaffold by Rev. Mr. John
ston, who linked arms wit 1 ! him as he
was escorted from his cell to the scaf
fold, where, with the aid of some prompt
ing by Mr. Johnston, he spoke as follows :
"I would wish to thank the Governor
of the jail, the Deputy Governor and
all the officers under his charge for the
kindly way they have used me. I also
wish to thank my counsel for the way
they have defended me. lam happy that
I got a fair trial, and I thank the pub
lic at large for what they have done

lor me. I ain also deeply grateful to
iny clergyman. That s all."
Aud then, he was launched into etern
ity.
Ine Du Coursier murder threw the
residents of the neighbourhood of
Lambton Mills into a state of
horror. Robert a-nd Edward Du
Coursier, two brothers, who were
continually quarrelling, met at Lamb-
ton Mills on the 26th September,
1879, on the roadway, and Robert, rais
ing his shotgun, deliberately fired a
cJiarge of buckshot into Edward s
body. Be then stepped up to
iis victim and fired a second
time, being so close that the
burning powder set fire to Edward s
clothing. Robert then went home, ewal-
lowed a dose of poison, and laid down
to die; but was found in time to pre
vent death from ensuing. He was tried*
found guilty, and was sentenced to be
hanged on the 16th of June, 1880.
On the day before the execution was
to take place he, by some means at pres
ent unknown, secured a phial of poison,
and, swallowing a portion of it, died
In two minutes, thus cheating the gal
lows of a victim.
At an early hour on July 23rd, 1880,
George Bennett, also known under the
alias of George Dixon, made expiation
on the gallows for the murder of Hon.
George Brown, managing director
of the Globe Printing Company.
When Bennett secured work as
assistant engineer at the Globe office
he was living with a young woman
named Mary McGowau, who alleged that
he was married to him. He was in the
habit of abusing her, and finally, after
they had separated several times, fihe
had him arrested for having neglected
to support her. Previous to this it had
been stated that Bennett was the son
of a coloured man, and on this point
he was exceedingly sensitive. He accused
Banks, the chief engineer of the Globe,
of having "given him away," and cher
ished against him a feeling of deadly
enmity. When Bennett was discharged
on account of his carelessness and drunken
habits, he blamed Banks for having secur
ed his discharge, and be openly threat
ened that nothing less than Banks
death would satisfy him. For several days
previous to the shooting of Mr. Brown,
and after he had been released on bail
in the case of neglecting his wife, Bennett
had been drinking to excess, and had
haunted the Globe lane with the avowed
intention of killing some one. On Thurs
day, the 25t i March, at about four-
o clock in the afternoon, he entered
the Globe o fice by a side door, and im
mediately proceeded to Mr. Brown s pri
vate room, from which shortly after
wards came the report of a revolver.
When the employes ran to see what
was the matter they found Mr. Brown
and his assassin in a deadly struggle,
(he revolver lying ou tie floor. It re
quired but a few momenta to over
power the assassin, but the ballet had
sped, and accomplished its deadly work
after Mr. Brown had suffered a long and
(painful illness. The coroner s jury sent
Bennett to the Assizes, and on 22nd June
he was sentenced to death. Upon
hearing his doom pronounced the prisoner
did not appear to be greatly concerned,
but, quietly folding his arms across his
breast, remarked : "I have nothing to say
except I would rather you would make
the sentence a little shorter; it would
suit me better." A very strong feature
of the evidence against the prisoner as
to the felonious intent was a letter found
with others on him at the time of the
arrest, in which he threatened to kill
Banks and his late master for fancied
ill-treatment and to complete the tra
gedy by committing suicide.
The unfortunate man did not seem to
have many friends, or, if he had, they
were very careless as to his couui-
tion. His brother and two sisters
called at the jail for the purpose of
taking a last farewell with him, but he
refused to see them, saying that he had
taken leave of all things earthly, and
did not wish his attention to be dis
tracted from what was before him. Ho
wished to be certain of his peace with
God. During the early hours of the even
ing he spent mo>t of his time in w reading
and writing and occasionally addressing
a commotni-place remark to the two
watchmen. All the officials who had any
thing to do with him were very kind,
which fact he appeared to appreciate.
At midnight he retired, and for a time
slept quit? soundly. He occupied the cell
in the east wing, from the windows of
which could be seen the scaffold, and
although Bennett did not seem the least
concerned, Governor Green considerately
had him removed to the west wing, and
placed him in the cell known as the
debtors room. At about two o clock the
doomed man started suddenly up from
his bed and commenced to rub his neck
vigorously, and then with a ghastly
smile and a muttered word sank back
on his pillow and was soon asleep again.
He had been dreaming thrst he had been
hanged. Just as fie first streak of light
dispersed the shadows from the room
he again eat up and repeated the mo
tion of rubbing his neck, his head falling
to one side as if he had already taken

the fatal drop. Although but half awake,
he seemed to a,t once detect the delusion,
and the look of relief which overspread
his face showed how much he apprecinted
the ehor,t reprieve. : At five o clock he
arose, and, making a careful toilet, took
his Prayer Book and commenced to read
his prayers in an earnest manner, occa
sionally varying his position by walking
up and down the room. He was dressed
in a suit of black broadcloth and blue
silk necktie, his beard, which had been
allowed to grow, half covering the lat
ter. At 5.30 he was notified that his
breakfast was ready, but he declined to
eat anything, saying that he felt perfect
ly well and in good spirits without par
taking of any nourishment. ;Aibout G aim.
his spiritual advisers arrived, and they
continued in prayer with him until the
arrival of the sheriff. England, the
hangman, had arrived at the jail the
night before, axid was accommodated
>vith> a cell. At seven o clock he
commenced his preparations. When
he hanged Williams he neglected to wear
a mask, but walked out before the spec
tator.? and coolly pulled the lever which
sent the doome:! man to eternity and
then turned his face to the spectators as
if for approval. A few days afterwards
a mob attacked him -with bricks and
stones, near the Don, and he had to flee
Tor his life. On this occasion he probably
remembered the lesson, as when he ap
peared in the corridor he "wore over his
head a mask of black glazed linen with
fmall apertures made for his eyes. "With
n couple of leather straps in his hand,
which he swung jauntily as he walked,
ho proceeded to the debtor s room, ap
parently little moved by his surround
ings or by thoughts of his part in the
approaching scene.
At 7.45 Mr. Sheriff Jarvis entered the
condemned man s room, followed by the
executioner, Mr. Langmuir, the Govern
ment Inspector of Prisons, Dr. McCol-
Inm, the jail surgeon, and the repreJ
scntatives of the Glob: 1 , Mail and Tele
gram. Bennett, as the door wus opened
by Governor Green, wts taking a few
short steps up and down the floor and
conversing with his spiritual advisers.
The sheriff said :
"Well, Bennett, my poor f.-llow, nre
you ready ?"
"Yes, sir, q\iite ready." The hangman
then brought his arm straps out, and
pinioned the arms of the doomed man.
When it was nearly done, Bennett
said :
" Don t make it so tight ; it s not ne
cessary, is it, to hurt a fellow?"
" It s all the better for you, iny friend,"
said the hangman.
" All right, if you think it necessary,"
replied the prisoner, and the pinioning
was completed.
Bennett had in his right hand an ebony
crucifix. All being ready, Mr. Bright,
who had gone outside to lengthen the
rope a foot, as Bennett intended to stand
on the drop, returned and reported to
the sheriff, who directed the procession
to the gallows to move on, the sheriff
leading, followed by Mr. Langmuir, Rev.
Fathers Eagan and Sheehan, Turnkey
Allen and the condemned man, the hang
man, Mr. Green, the governor of the jail;
Dr. McCollum, the deputy governor, Mr.
Ewan, and the reporters of the press.
The procession moved out of the room in
the west wing, and across the main hall
of the jail to the east wing, and down a
stairway to the basement, out into the
prison yard. In the walk Bennett was
firm, and stepped out as confidently
as 1 if the occasion was an everyday one.
As the solemn procession passed through
the winding corridors, a few of the spec
tators who had not gone into the yard,
crowded forward tc catch a glimpse of
the doomed man. Few there were who
did not feel a thrill of admiration for
the manner in which the murderer con
ducted himself. Linked to the arm of a
constable, he walked with his head
thrown back, not a trace of fear being
discernible in either his deportment or
in his features. For fully an hour before
the doomed one left his cell members of
the press, officials and spectators had
been arriving, and even up to the last
five minutes the door bell continued to
tinkle, announcing fresh visitors. Hardly
a word was spoken above a whisper, and
all the spectators appeared to be deeply
impressed with the sombre surroundings.
When the sheriff appeared at the top
of the stone steps leading to the yard,
followed by the r&verend fathers, a low
murmur went up from the spectators, and
more than one face blanched as they
caught sight of the hapless victim, who
continued to walk with firm and unfal
tering step. At the foot of the gallows
he paused a moment, and, sighing heav
ily, he turned his head to one side. Tak
ing a momentary glance at the specta
tors, who numbered about seventy, he
proceeded upwards, not failing to change
his step so as to walk in time with the
constable. Immediately upon reaching
the floor of the scaffold, Bennett stepped
forward and addressed those present,
speaking without faltering, and holding
a crucifix upraised in his hand :
Gentlemen, I am going to die, and I
am innocent of the crime. By no words
that I can possibly say can I clear
myself, and I cannot say more than that
268
LANDMARKS OF TORONTO.
I am innocent, as the act was beyond
my control. The act by which Hon.
George Brown met his death was done
in an excited moment. I suppose he could
uot foresee the consequences. He thought
I was going to use the revolver when I
drew it from my pocket, and he grasped
at it, and it caused the act which caused
his death. His hand must have struck
the trigger, as the shot was fired simul
taneously with his catching it. I am
going to meet my God now, and it would
be a foolish thing for me to die with a
lie on my lips. What I say here you
may accept as a fact. I would not like
ly speak false when I am about to die.
I am possessed of spirit enough to have
acknowledged the crime if I did it. The
blood does not tingle in my veins that
would let me Jo such an act. I am not
false at heart nor a coward. It would
have been a shameful thing to have done
such an act, a8 Mr. Brown did not de
serve it. He was a most popular man
throughout the world, and deserved it,
and he went to his death through an
oversight on my part. I went to him
for a very eimpife reason, and not to com
mit a crime. I could not control the
event. There was liquor in me, and the
accident occurred, and the result was
the fatal act.
Bennett then turned his back to the
spectators, am!, motioning with his right
hand, in. which he held a crucifix, re
marked quite coolly, " I am prepared to
die. All I have to say is, May God have
mercy on my eoul. "
Quietly stepping on the trap door, Ben
nett made a motion with his hand, and
the hangman stepped forward, secured
his legs by placing a strap around them
between his knees and ankles ; the noose
was faateued about his neck ; the sheriff
gave the signal ; rapidly England drew
back the bolt, and, a moment later
Bennett s boxly was suspended in mid air,
having taken a drop of about eight feet.
For a moment the body remained limp and
motionless, turning round and round, then
there was a, convulsive twitching and
drawing up of the legs, repeated at in
tervals for about eight minutes, and then
all was still. Dr. McCollum examined the
body, and, iinuiug life extinct, ordered
the corpse to be lowered. A constable
untied the rope from above, and Mr.
MoCabe, undertaker, lowered the body
into the plain stained pine coffin.
Dr. H. H. Wright had a jury empanel
led, and after the usual formalities had
been gone through, a verdict of death
by dislocation of the neck was returned.
There was no post-mortem examination.
Immediately behind the scaffold there
was a stone in the wall marked " J. T.,
1872," showing where Traviss was exe
cuted. His body was buried on the
north side of the scaffold. ..Williams
was interred next to him, and to the
south, of this Bennett s body was in
terred.
Bennett before death handed to Gov
ernor Green the following letter :
Toronto Jail, July 22nd, 1880.
Warning to Young Men.
The sands of time are continually cramb-
ling beneath our feet, and we are drawing
towards that awful moment which marks
the boundary between time and eternity.
In general we know not the day nor the
hour * tut when by man the day, the hour
and the place are fixed, then the mortal
must seriously reflect on the past, the pre
sent and the dark mysteries that lie be
fore him. It is appointed for man once
to die, and after that the judgment. I
must soon present myself before the bar
of that judgment which is just, to give
an account of my stewardship. Now I be

have been sorry to leave, now I see how
false are the charms of the world, how
powerful Its attraction^, how dreadful its
allurements, how sweet its honey appears
though it has the sourness of vinegar. In
the days of my childhood I wag brought
up in the Catholic faith, and though for
years I have, to my grief, wandered like
a stray sheep from the precepts, wise
counsels and frequently the sacraments of
the church, yet I Sfrish to die in her bosom,
and my greatest corisol*tion at the last
moment will be to be fortified by the sacra
ments which Christ has left in his Church.
Too soon, alas, I lost best friends, my dear
parents, who would no doubt, have brought
me up in the fear and love of God, and ih
the practice of approaching the sacraments.
The result was that I soon fell an easy vic
tim, of evil associates.
Among my new companions I learn
ed to regard the practice of going
to confession as an intolerable slav
ery, but in abandoning its restraining
Influences I fell into a slavery of a dif

that was eating 1 rny Ufa away. Through i
my late misfortunes I shaped my course
alone. I felt that I had been grievously I
wronged by man, and every day some ad- j
(litional causa would arise to fan the flames \
already making a hell within my breast. |
If before this feeling obtained control of
me I had unburdened myself in the tri- -
bunal of penance of the load of sin and
trouble which I was unable to bear alone
and obtained the wise counsels of one in ;
whom. I could confide, things would be dif- j.
ferenti with me now. Instead of doing this j
I brooded over it alone and endeavoured to :
drown my feelings in the current of human |
pleasures , and without such counsel to
aid me or the grace of God to guide me .
I came to grief. I have no motive in ap
pearing before ine Jauj? of the living and
the dead with a lie upon my lips. It j
would serve no purpose here, and would \
confine me hereafter with a full con- !
sciousness of the position in which I am !
placed. I say that I never intended to
injure Mr. Brown ; he never deserved it i
from me, and I am morally innocent of ,
the crime for which I am doomed to die. \
I have enough besides that to atone for to j
the justice of God. I am resigned to my [
doom, and would offer now, if I had them, j
a thousand lives in atonement for my sins, i
I freely and from my heart and soul for- I

If the ocean, which is their centre, ought
to give them repose ; the winter deprives
the 1 trees of their foliage in order to give
us a lesson on death. I am no longer
attached to earth toy any tie o r affection;
I havo resigned all my desires in the hands
of God. The sentiments of the world, which
are now dead hi me, have taught me a
lesson of death. The rivers flow into the
sea ; the seasons of the year follow one

Toronto Jail, July 23, 1880.
I here express my sincere thanks to the
officials of Toronto Jail. I have received
from them the kindest attention and ut-
moist civility in contributing to my wants
during- my confinement here. It is re-
mnrkatole the discipline that is exercised in.
the discharge of the various duties to be
performed, and the caution, promptitude
and despatch which accompanies all vrork
done within the building. The persistent
watchfulness with which innocent and guilty
aJike are regarded when once beneath the
shadow of this roof makes Toronto Jail a
credit to the city and the country at larirev
I have found Mr Green a kind, shrewd, ob
servant man. Nothing can escape his no
tice. The manner in which the business of
the place is conducted is worthy of all
praise..
Farewell, Toronto Jail.
GEORGE BENNETT.
The following letter was received from
tbe young woman Mary McGowan,
whom the executed man repudiated as
his wife, but who said she was married
to him. at Yorkville about five years
before :; i
Sir, I take the liberty of writing these
few lines to express my sorrow th,t my
husband has spoken so " falsely about mp.
I see by the papers that he says I wps
false to him ; but the God in the Heaven
knows thot I was not. He will certainly
be punished for the wrongs he has done
to me, and any sins that are on my soul
he has driven me to it. 1 have done no
wrong to him or to my sister that they
should try to ruin me for ever, and I
hope God will forgive them. While with
him my Ufa was a burden, and although
I endured terrible sufferings I fcJung to
him till he. cast me asirle. an 1 then attempt
ed to toak3 my lif?. He s.kl thit after we
parted that I tried to get him out of his
situation, but he knows that to be un>-
true. After I have gone down to the Glotbe
office with his srjiper, In the pouring- rain,
and after he had taught me the gauge of
steam, I rsed to put coal in the tum&pp
and light the gas, while he lay drunk on the
table. This is a terrible confession for a
wife, to make against her doomed husband,
but in Justice to myself I must tell the
truth, and show the public how he has
treated me. He denied his own father and
mother because one of them was coloured,
and would he not deny me ?
For the murder of John Rutledge, a
; guard at the Central Prison, Robert
1 Neill was executed in the eastern jail

On that occasion a new form of scaf-
foid was used. The old drop scaffold
i was superseded by an arrangement
i worked by releasing a suspended heavy
i weight, which in dropping lifted the
I victim into the air with sufficient force
i to server the vertebral column or pro-

twenty-one years of a,ge, and had
vicious criminal instincts. He had a

murdered Guard Rutledge Neill _ was
serving out a long term of imprison

An intractable convict most of the
time, he had been condemned to soli-
1 tary confinement for gross miscon
duct. On one occasion he hurled a heavy
iron template at a guard, and the fol
lowing day threatened to murder an-
! other guard. For these serious breaches
i of the discipline of the institution he
was flogged. For a minor offence he
, was subsequently ordered to solitary
confinement, and^while undergoing his
punishment planned an attack on the

whem Neill plunged the keen blade of
a broom maker s knife into his abdo
men. Rutledge died two days later
from the effects of the wound. Neill
was tried at the Criminal Assizes in
Toronto before Judge Falcon bridge and
a jury on Thursday, January 26th,
1888, and the evidence being of the
most straightforward character, the
jury returned a verdict of wilful mur
der.
As the outcome of a drunken de
bauch, Thomas Kane, a labourer, mur
dered his putative wife in a small
house at 150 Defoe street, on the even
ing of Saturday, Noveimber 16th, 1889.
The pair when under the influence of
liquor were quarrelsomely inclined, and
their domestic brawls were usually un
noticed by the neighbours. The follow
ing evening, however, the woman was
found lifeless, her face battered almost
beyond recognition. Kane was pres
ent when the discovery was made, but
too drunk to appreciate his position.
When his attention was called to the
bruised and bleeding corpse he mut
tered something about the deeds of
whiskey drinking and walked out of
the house. Two hours afterwards Kane
was captured on Chestnut street. The
crime was a most brutal one. The in
terior of the house resembled the
shambles. The woman had apparently
retreated from one room to another
to escape the brutality of her paramour,
until exhausted and weak from the
loss of b/Lood she sank on the kitchen
floor helpless. Kane then kicked her
on the head with his heavy boots. The
walls, the floors and the furniture were
all bespattered with blood. Kane had
also used a carpenter s hammer and
flatiron on his victim. He was convict
ed of wilful murder at the Criminal
Assizes on Tuesday, December 12th,
and sentenced by Judge Street to be
hanged on Wednesday, February 12th,
1890. On that day, in the western yard,
Kane paid the penalty of his crime, the
scaffold being the one used at the exe
cution of Neill two years previously.
CHAPTER XLVII.
BRIGANTINE SEA-GULL.
One of the Few Lake Trader* that Hailed on
Salt Water Fortune* of a Famous
"The sixties" aire looked back to by
many vesselmen as the Golden Age of
lake shipping. Those were the days,
they will tell you, when every little
lake port owned its fleet of sailing
vessels, and lots of money was being
made un the carrying trade. They will
tell you of the mamy different vessels
1 which were once the pride ot the lake,
and among these you will hear them
mention the "brig" Sea Gull. She is
: remembered, not on account of her size,
or her beauty, or her speed, for in none
of these particulars was she remark
able, but because of a voyage she made,
: in the year 1865 down the river St.
Lawrence and south-eastward, over
the broad Atlantic, across the line to
Fort >,atal, in Cape Colony, South
Africa. This voyage never was at
tempted before, or accomplished since
by a lake vessel.
The Sea Gull was built in Oakville, in
1864, by John Simpson, who with his
brother built a great many of the
once famous Oakville schooners, some
of which are still afloat. The vessel
vas owned, by John Murray, of Oak
ville, and Frank Jackmau, sr., of To
ronto, and was registered in this port.
When she first came out she was a
fore-and-aft centreboard schooner, of
j 201 tons register. These were her di-
j mensions: Length over all, 105 feet; ex
treme beam, 42 feet; draught, when
loaded, ten feet; when light, 4 feet 6
inches. She had the peculiarity of most
Oakville vessels .her masts had quite
a "spread." The raking mainmast \vas
! stepped rather far aft, and the fore
mast pretty well forward. Siie is said
i to have cost her owners some $15,000.
There was a brisk trade in those
| days between Toronto and Oswego, lum
ber and grain being carried down the
lake and coal on; the return trip. The
Sea Gull was engaged in Obis trade for
the first season.
In the spring of 1865 Mr. Davids,
of Toronto, chartered her to take out
a consignment of Lumber, buggies and
sundries to a man, named Lyslie, at
Port Natal, South Africa. Alterations
were made in her rig, to fit her better
for her long voyage, and she was
changed from a schooner to a brig-
antine, this rig being considered
handier for use on salt water. She car
ried fifteen different pieces of canvas,
there being five square sails on the
foremast. Her crew amounted to ten
men all told. There were four men
and two boys before the mast.
She left for Port Natal in June,
1865, and after a three months voy
age, in which she met with no mishap,
or, in fact, anything at all extraor->
dinary, reached her destination. She
crossed "the bar" at Port Natal under
canvas, without the assistance of a tug,
a thing very seldom done. She excited
considerable comment in that, port by
the length of her voyage, and by the
fact tbat. sie was the smallest vessel

\vhicJi up to that time had entered
the harbour, aua the only Great Lake
trader which had ever made the voy
age. The cargo was delivered to the
consignee, and it might be mentioned
that the lumbar was sold at the mod
est price of 8d. per foot. After dis
charging her cargo, the Sea Gull lay
in the harbour for three months, wait
ing for a charter and making repairs
and alterations, for experience had
taught the fresh water sailors that
several improvements might be made.
Among the changes was a reduction
this port after a voyage of thirteen
nuoniths aind was placed on exhibition
at Yomige street wharf, where great
crowds tlocked to see her. The voyage
had been a very fortunate one ; none
of the crew were lost, the vessel suf
fered no damage, and there were no
mishaps whatever. Frank Jackman,
sr., was captain, and his nephew, James
Jackman. mate. Captain May, a salt
water sailor, acted as navigator. About
$9,000 was paid for the trip, and after
all bills were settled there was $2,000
profit. A sample of South African rum

In. January, 1866, t&e Sea-GulI sailed
for Boston wiifchi a cargo of sugar, mo
lasses, pepper, arrowroot, ivory and
some thirty-seven passengers, and. ar
rived at her destination after a voyage
ot mruety-eighit days. There she dis
charged her cargo and loaded flour for
St. Johm s, Newfoundland, sailing from
that port in ballast for Sydney.Cape
Hretcca, and there received a cargo of
coal for Montreal. She came up lighit
from Montreal to Kingston,, and tihiere
got a cargo of wood for Toronto.

was brought back, and kept on tap in
the captain s cabin. Verily, a little of it
went a long way thousands of miles
and old marines declare it was strong
enough! to knock a man down.
After this remarkable voyag* the
Sea Gull continued to earn money for
her owners in the lake trade. Sh car
ried grain and coal from Chicago to
Kingston for a couple of years, bt in
1870 she was sold to tlhe well known
firm, of ship owners, Smith & Post,
of Oswego. They kept her for about a
dozen years, and she was very success
ful as a lake trader. Her American

shrubs of different kinds with which

This old time house was built about
1818, or possibly a year earlier, by

Mr- W. A. Baldwin, c Mashquoteh, as
a Contribution to the endowment of the
Church of the Redeemer.
Tfh 3 first occupants in this quaint old

kindest of hostesses. Mr. Kendrick died
in the sixties, and Mrs. Kendrick sur
vived him until 18~i>. Mr. John ShaAV

was the Potter s Field burying ground,

co rage, any one could watch the
funerals taking place in this cemetery.
There were not half-a-dozen houses

more pretentious dwellings, but there
will not be the interest attached to

George III. hsd been King of Eng

the province of "Upper Canada was
created, out of what was vaguely call
ed Canada previous to the time named.
The country thus designated was that
portion now included in the province of
Quebec and Ontario, which, by the Act
of 1791, became Lower and Upper Can
ada, respectively.
The first public celebration of which

on the 5th a(id 6th day of February,
1803, when they passed a loyal con
gratulatory address to King Georg
III. on the naval victory of Lord Nel-
son at Trafalgar in the previous Octo
ber. It may be noted that it took more
thin three months for the news of
Lord Nelson s victory and death to
travel from Europe to York, Upper
Canada, it not being received in the
latter plaice until February 1st, 1806.
Trafalgar was fought October 21st,

There are no records of any celebra

ing held in Upper Canada, probably
Canadians had enough to do in repair
ing the effects of their own struggle
with the United Sta,tes, then oniy just

clination to be joylul over anything.
George III. died January 29 tb, 1820,
and was succeeded by his son, George

proclamation was duly real in the mar
ket place and at Government House by
Sheriff Samuel HI lout. There are no
records tot any public rejoicings a year
later, on the occasion of his Majesty s
coronation, though it mlay safely be
teJkenl for granted that a royal salute
was fired irom the battery at the Old

publicly announced by tihe crier, and
the then sheriff, W. B. Jarvis, pro
claimed William IV. as King.
The- .Patriot, then published in Kings
ton by Thomas Dalton, had the follow
ing remarks on tih,e occasion:
"George IV. (has cl osed his illustrious
career amidst the regrets of his affec
tionate subjects." After several para
graph ot regret foo/ the deceased mon

IV. is now cur lawful Sovereign; to him
is due our undivided kwaJty, which let
us manifest by keeping tihe closest
watch, upon whoever imy be his Secre
tary! of Stata few: th Colonies for the
titne being."
It does mat appear that any public
celebratioa <D( William IV. s coronation
tooii place either in ork or in \Kings-
ton, and ths Miooitreal papers are si
lent on the point. The coronation took
piaca June 28, 1831.
All but seven years elapsed when on
June 20th, 1837, William. IV., like his
predecessors, also died, and his niece,
our present Queen, ascended the throne.
The- intelligence arrived in Toronto-
no longer York on August 2nd, 1837,
and was then and there announced, and
again did Sheriff W. B. Jarvis read |
the young Queen s proclamation. This
was somewhat of a ceremony, the sheriff
accompanied by various officials going
in. an open conveyance, first to the
City Hall then to Government House,
in front of each place reading the pro
clamation. Among those with him were
the local members of Parliament, the ;
clerk to the Executive Council, Mr. j
John Beikie, the Mayor of Toronto, Mr. j
Powell, and others.
The Queen s coronation took place at ;
Westminster Abbey on June 28th, 1838, !
amidst great pomp and ceremony, and .
was not by any means allowed to pass ;
unnoticed in Toronto. Here a grand
procession of the firemen took place
under the direction of the then Chief
of the Brigade, the late Mr. Thomas
Denny Harris. The order of the pro- :
cession was as follows : First came j
the bands of the two local militia regi- i
ments, the Queen s Rangers and the
Queen s Foresters, then the chief offi
cers of the brigade, viz., T. D. Harris,
chief engineer, Richard Woods-worth,
assistant engineer, Robert Beard,
David Paterson and James F. Westland,
the first two of whom were chiefs of i
the Hook and Ladder Company and
Toronto Fire Engine Company, and the ;
latter was the secretary.
Following the officers was a fireman
who carried a mace, gilded from top ;
to bottom and surmounted by a lion, j
Then came "two silk banners with em
blematic devices, one having the word
Victoria " in its centre, surrounded
by a wreath of the rose, shamrock and
thistle, and underneath "British su-
j premacy." The other banner had a
i representation of the British-American
, fire engine on it, and the name of the
company underneath the engine. Forty
firemen were with the engine, which
was gaily decorated. The firemen were
arrayed in scarlet jackets and white
trousers. These banners were painted
by Alexander Hamilton. On the engine
was a painting representing the death
of Wolfe and the taking of Quebec.
Then came two more flags, the work of
Hart & March, and the hook and lad
der waggon, followed by six axemen
and twenty-eight firemen, then was
borne the Royal Standard, and the
rear was brought up by more firemen.
The route of the procession was along
Yonge and King streets to the Garri
son common, where it dispersed. Royal
salutes were fired from the Old Fort,
and a public banquet took place in the
evening and fireworks.
In Kingston the day was observed
by the ladies of that place presenting
the 1st Frontenac Militia Regiment
with a stand of colouxs, the ceremony
taking place near Block House No. 3,
in front of Colonel Bonnycastle s resi
dence. Mrs. Kirby presented the flags
for the ladies committee, and Lieut.-
Col. Marklaud, commanding the regi
ment, accepted them and thanked the
ladies. A display of fireworks took
place at night, and during the day
there was a boat race at Barriefield.
In Montreal and Quebec the day was
celebrated by military parades, and all
through the two provinces the occasion
was not allowed to pass by unnoticed.
Few of those Avho were present then
are witihi us in, 1897, yet it is mot umant-
terestunig once more to recall tihe
events of Auld Lang Syne connected
witihi the Victorian era.

DUNDAS STREET TOLL GATES.

The old building depicted in the cut
represents the check toll-gate which
for exactly forty years stood on thie

as St. Glair avenue, which extends from
Dundas street on the west to Youge

that is, in 1857, toll-gates abounded
in every direction west, north and east
of the city. As in England, they are
now things of the past; but whether
rightly or wronigly, they were the
source of constant trouble, quarrels
and annoyance while they did exist.
Tihe gates on Dundas street within
ten miles of Toronto at the time re
ferred to were : No. 1, at Brockton, on
thie north side of the street, about half
way between Sheridan and Brock
avenues ; No. 2, always known as the
"Blind toll-gate," on the north-east
corner of the concession now known
as Bloor street and Dundas street. This
I was built, for the purpose of catch-
ing those people who, corning from To
ronto, drove along Dufferin street
north to the concession, thence pro-
, ceeding west to Dundas street, thus
: avoiding the Brockton gate-. It often
happened that a teamster going to the
city would turn out of the way and
{ proceed east along the concession, so
as to escape, or in the hope of escaping,
Brockton toll. The keeper of the
I "blind" gate rarely missed noting the
! occurrence, and looked out for the re
turn of this man. If he came by him
self, he was all but certain to find
the bar down and passage impossible.

was a peculiar construction of two
storeys, with a covered way extend
ing across Dundas street. No. 3 gate
was the one first mentioned in this
article, and the fourth was the Mimico
gate, some little distance to the west
of St. George s church, Islington. Teams
proceeding to Toronto from beyond the
fourth gate paid toll at the fourth
and the first, being free of the two
intermediate ones; but those who came
from places between the fourth and the
third paid at the latter and also again
at the first. The "blind" toll-gate
never exacted a toll from teams pro
ceeding direct along Dundas street, but
Then would follow a war of words,
and "langwidge" flowed that would be
extremely forcible even from a Lon
don cabby s point of view. Sometimes
even blows were struck, which occa
sionally resulted in a meeting before
thte magistrates, with sometimes a con
viction for assault. AS a pretty gen
eral rule, though, the toll taker settled
his own quarrels. Neither he nor his
employers had much likimg for Police
Court proceedings. They knew fJhat to
a great extent they were Islnnaelites;
every man s hand was against them.

The row of brick buildings on the
north-west corner of King and Yonge
streets, which were pulled down in
1897, to re-erect on their site hand
somer and more modern structures,
were among the earliest, though not the
very earliest, of Toronto s brick houses.
It will surprise not a few readers of
The Landmarks to learn that, although
it was one hundred and four years
since Major-General Simcoe laid out the
infant town of York, now the city of
Toronto, that the lot on the corner of
King and Yonge streets, so long known
as fiine&n s, and previously to that 3s
Sutherland s corner, was in the year
1800, seven years after the foundation
of the town, still unpatented land, cov-
of very modest pretensions, and there
is nothing to show that any other
house occupied the site, save that of
Bo-wkett s, until the year 1832. Wil
liam Bowkett, by a, will made in 1832,
bequeathed the property to his wife for
her life, and upon her death it was to
pass abso utely to Mr. Laurence Law
lor a relative of Mr. Bowkett s proba
bly. Mr. Lawlor duly succeeded, and
in turn willed his interest in the pro
perty to his son, Dr. Michael Lawlor,
who for some years occupied a cottage
on the western side of Spadina avenue,
north of Queen street west. Later Dr.
Lawlor lived aaid practised at 187 Rich
mond street west.
Upon the death of Dr. Michael Law
lor the property descended to his son,
the present owner, John Laurence Law
lor, who is an officer in H. M. 6th In-
niskilling Dragoons.

he was not even resident in York. He
was a mariner by profession, and in
1828 was part owner and al^o captain
of the schooner Canadian. Whether he
resided here at first is of little conse
quence. He certainly did a few years
laiter, and it is evident he took an in
terest in the welfare of the young town,
for in 1801 his name appears as a sub
scriber of six dollars in aid of the pro
jected improvement of Yonge street.
In the year 1832 William Bowkett
leased the land, which is the subject of
this article to John Ewart, for the
space of 21 years, at an annual ground
rent of $240 per annum. Mr. Ewart
thereupon built the houses which have
just disappeared from the site. In 1853

the north side of Front street, and here
he built the large brick structure now
known as the Queen s hotel.
This was in 1828. The buildings
formed a row of three-storey dwelling
houses, four in number. In the rear
of the buildings for many years a frame
house stood. This was the Toronto Aca
demy, at the head of which was the late
Rev. Alexander Gale (Landmarks of To
ronto, Vol. I., page 295), who for some
time h ld (he position of secretary for
Knox College.
The Luildings were used for some
years as dwelling houses, one of them
being occupied by the late W. B. Jar-
vi3, Sheriff of Toronto. In 1844, when
Knox College was founded, the four
: dwellings were thrown into one. and

formed the finst Knox College build
ing. In 1856 Knox College was removed
to Elmsley Villa, situated at what is
npw the corner of Grosvenor and St.
Vincent streets. This place had at one
time been occupied as the Government
House, and was ths home of Chief Jus
tice Elmsley, from whom it took its
name.
After the removal of the college, the :
buildings which form the subject of the i
landmark, were turned into a hotel.
A Mr. Sword was the first to occupy
them in this capacity. In 1839, on the
removal of the =e n t of Government from
Toronto, Mr. Svvord gave up business,
at this place, and was succeeded by
Mr. J. B. Riley. Tha IKK el was carried
on under his management up to 1832.
In this year Captain Dick, who had
built and owned the buildings, took
the management into his own hands.
The buildings were considerably alter
ed and enlarged, and the whole place
was refitted with all the requirements
of a modern hotel. It had hitherio
been known as Sword s or Riley s hotel,
according tot he name o r i s proprietor
for the time being. Since 18o2, when
the management passed into the hands
of Captain Di^k, it has been known as
the Queen s Hotel.
In 1874 the Queen s was sold to
Messrs. McGaw and Winnett. It has
remained in their hands ever since, al
though many alterations and inprove-
ments, both in the building itself and
its equipment have been made.
Thus the structure has been occu
pied at different times as dwelling
houses, a college site, and as a hotel
building. No one would think that the
present white fronted structure, with
its long balconies and verandah, many
windows, shaded by noble chestnut,
trees, and cool lawns, had a record of
being sixty years in use. The surround
ings have changed even more than the
hotel itself. Even in 1856, which is not
so very long ago, there were no other
buildings, with the exception of this
one. on Front street, between Bay and
York streets. From the windows of
the present Queen s Hotel there was,
even up to the fifties, an uninterrupt
ed view of the bay and the Island be
yond it. The south side of Front street
had not yet been built up, and the
present Esplanade, with its net-work
of railway tracks, then had no exist
ence, the nearest approach to it being

CHAPTER LI1I.
TWO OLD NEWSPAPERS
Copies of ihe " York Oazotle" In 1811 13
( outniiting: Same Ort;l \ows Concerning
tlie Town off ark Before the War.
Mr. Joshua Adams, barrister, of
Sa,rnia ha3 two single copies ot "The
York Gazette," published in York (To
ronto) in 1811-12, and he ha,s kindly
loaned them for inspection. "The York
Gazette" wa@ originally "The Uppea
Cana,da, Gazette, or American Oracle,"
first published a,t Niagara in 1792. It
was subsequently published in York
under the name of "The York Ga,zette."
The files of this paper "between 1809-
1822 are very incomplete, in fact no per
fect file from 1792 exists. Partial sets
are in ths Parliamentary Library in
the Queen s Park, but the best file is
in the Public Library at Toronto. The
latter, however, is lacking in the num
bers indicated.
It is rather peculiar that of all the
papers published in the early days ot
Upper Canada there is no complete
file of the official paper of the province.
This is accounted for by the fact that
the fire which destroyed the Parlia
ment Buildings in 1813, and again in
1824, and that a.t Montreal in 1849, de
stroyed a,lso the files of this paper. It
is understood tha,t no search has been
made in England for the "York
Gazette," and it is believed that if an
examination were made in the Colonial
Office complete files of this paper
might be found.
The two copies of the York Gazette
referred to are of date 13th November,
1811, a.nd 15th January, 1812. This paper
was the official paper of Upper Canada,
and the first page has at its head the
Royal Arms, with the letters G. R. at
the right and left hand lower corners
of the arms, the title "The York
Gazette" being across the page.
The papsr is four columns in width,
the sheet, exclusive of the margin, be
ing nine and a, half inches by fifteen
inches. The date line gives the number
as "Vol XXI., Wednesday, November
13, 1811, No. XV11L, 4 Dols. per ann."
The first column contains a : pro
clamation by Isaac Brock, President of
Upper Canada, convening Parliament
a,t York, on the 2nd December.
The second article is the proclamation
of Isaac Brock on his assumption of the
duties ot Tresident or Administrator
of the Province during the absence of
Lieu ten nnt-Governor Francis Gore.
The third article is a proclamation
issued by Governor Gore, warning t he-
public against cutting timl:er on the

public lands. This had leen done in J
l."09.
A fourth proclamation concerned
purclmse, of hemp by the Government* :
and the appointment of commissioners. ;
A fifth notice, signed by John ,
P-eikie, the Sheriff, warned tenants on |
she Glefae lands to pay up all arrears.
The sixth article is an advertisement!
by George Crookshank, the Deputy i
Assessment Commissiary-General, ask-
in o; for tenders for timber for the
King s service.
The last notice on the fourth col
umn and on the. first page was the
following:
The Editor regrets to ftate that his
repeated, notifications to many of hii

long ineffectual he therefore again
requefts that payments may be made
without unfeafeonable delay. From
difappointments he has reluctantly \
bean obliged to adopt a rule in \
which he \vill invariable perfift, which
is that few orders will be hereafter
executed unlefs accompanied with pay
ment." York, Aug. 11, 1811."
The. second page had its first column
devoted to "Hancock s Abstract of the
King s Taxes," which duties, it is pre
sumed, prevailed in Upper Canada.
The tax for one horse for either rid
ing or driving was 2 13s. 6d., and \for
a four-wheeled carriage 11 5s Od.
Then followed the duty on carts and
clo^-s, with the "New Stamp Act" in
full.
The second column had despatches
from New York, Charleston, Philadel
phia and Boston, and one from Halifax
announcing the arrival of the Sceptic
transport, with officers and part of a
company of the Royal Artillery. The
despatch contained other shipping
news.
The last column had despatches from
London, England, dated 20th Sspt.
The third page i* filled with des
patches concerning the war on the
Continent. Tine third page had in its
fourth column a small heading: The
York Gazette," with date, followed
by an account of the weather, and the
last two inches of space on the page
are devoted to a notice of the sale <of
articles at the House of William
Firth, Esquire, by "Tiros. Mosley,
Auctioneer." Mosley s auction room
was in the building, still standing, on
King street, north side, two doors east
c<f George street.
The fourth pa-ge had at the head of
the first column a, notlae from W.
Allan," as ageat of the. Phoanix As
surance Company. Mr. Allan was the
father of Hon. G. W. Allan.
This is followed by an advertisement :

CHAPTER LIV.
A YONGE STREET BLOCK-
The Cameron Block on the West Side ol
Youge sit. N,>rtii o 1" Queen Trade as it was
on this Part or Yonge Street in the Fifties
and in llio riuties.
It is not so many years since the cor
ners of Yonge and Queen .streets had
j but little prominence as a business
! centre. Indeed up to the middle of the
sixties, King street east, from Yonge
street to the market, had the call in
dry goods, millinery and groceries.
To-day all is changed, and the great
dry goods stores which attract the
multitude, are on Yonge street, and
I anywhere from the corner of King and
j Yonge street up to Albert street,
there is a continuous moving mass of
people, who fill the shops and make
i use of the sidewalks.
The blosk referred to in this land
mark is the old Cameron block, a large
portion of which is now the home of
the immense departmental store of the
T. Eaton Co y.
Prior to 1826 the only building of
prominence on the west side of Yonge
street, north of Queen street to Albert
street, was the Sun Tavern (Land
marks, Vol. I., Page 113). It was af-
; terwards called "The Falcon," and sub-
i sequently the "Craven Heifer." The
! last occupant was a Mr. Fulljames.
The house was destroyed by fire in
1839, and the ground was vacant for
years.
In 1833-34, the north-west corner of
i Yonge and Queen streets, was No. 57,
i and the house was "The Sun Tavern."
North of the yard of this house was
I the blacksmith shop (No. 59), of Wil-
| liam Campbell, and the shop of John
Brice, a butcher. No. 61 was empty,
and No. 63 had David Cunningham as
blacksmith, and John White, a wooJ-
: turner. No. 65 was occupied by James
Malone, a carpenter, and Robert Cook,
in the same trade. At No. (37 Hugh
Morrison had The Golden Bill Tavern,
and at No. 69 Mr. George Nichol lived.
About the present corner of Albert
street. No. 71, Robert Johnstone car-
, ried on business as a boot maker, and
i Mr. John Bugg, a prominent builder.
Then came Macaulay Lane, now Al
bert street.
The Provincial Agricultural Associ
ation, after the fire in 1859, erected
i a building fo" offices, shops and _ a
public hall. The association had its
offices upstairs, and Fleming & Co.,
seedsmen, had the main si ore on the
corner. This shop was af .ervrards oc-

furniture dealers (No. 139), while a
large frame building to the north was
the Franklin House Hotel. (No. 141),
kept by John Montgomery, well-known
grocer and confectioner.
These houses were all of frame. From
No. 139 they were torn down to make
way in 18 ,:>/ for the Cameron block,
for the property had passed into the
hands of the late Hon. J. H. Cameron.

[t was of white brick, with twelve
single shops in the block, having a

CROOKSHANK FARM HOUSE-
History of One or the First Building* In
York anil Some of the Change* It has Ex
lrJf!itcod in finely Years.
Bathurst street, with, its crowds of
people and continual traffic of noisy
electric; cars, silent, but swift, bicycles,
and vehicles of alii descriptions, drawn
by horses, is on-3 of the last places in
the city that would bo thought to
have at any time been a farm lane.
Such, however, is the case. In the
very early directories of York it is
called Grookshank s lane, and a verit
able lane it was not in the ordinary
city acceptation of the term, how-
over. It was a semi-private thorough
fare, connecting the farm of the late
Hon. George Crookshank with the
city, or rather small tovvn of that
period. Its southerly portion received
the name of Bathurst street in the
twenties, in honour of Earl Bathurst,
who was Secretary for the Colonies in
the reign of George IV. Even as late
as 1860 the upper portion of it was
still called Orookshank s lane, however.
The Crookshank farm extended from
Queen street to the north of the Daven
port road, and contained about 200
acres of land. The present Bathurst
street ran through the eastern half
it.
Somewhat south of the centre o p the
farm stood the cofttage which forms
th* 1 subject of this Landmark. It was
built in the first decade of the present
century, and is one of the few build
ings in the city that date from be
fore the war of 1812. It was occupied
by Mr. Orookshank before he bui t the
house at the present corner of Front
and Windsor streets in 1815. Mr.
Crookshank and his family occupied it
a second time in 1820, when the house
at the north-east corner o,f Front and
Peter streets was being re-built.
The farm house and all the adjoining
land remained in the hands of Mr.
Crookshank up to 1851, when it and
some other acres that surrounded it
were sold to Robert A. Goolemougih.
H; held the property for eight years,
when it passed into the hands of Cap
tain Strachan. This gentleman was
the son of the Honourable and Right
Reverend John Strachan, D.D., first
.TVshop of the See of Toronto Caohu n
Sti-adham far years occupied a villa on
tflie norttw-east corner of York and
Front streets, built in 1833 by Mr. J.
G. Howard for the use of Thomas Mer
cer Janes, one of the qpmniissioners of
the Canada Company. Captain Strachan
bought the whole Crookshank farm.
and occupied the farm-house for several
years. During hLs term of ownership
the property was greatly altered, being
so .d in different blocks, and cut up by
freshly-plan.ra>d streets. The house and
the three-acre lot on which it stood
were, sold to Mr. Phiftp Brown in 1864.
( Up to that time the building had not
. undergone any very extensive changes.
\ When Mr. Brown bought it, however,
he had it moved about a hundred yards
eastward, nearer the former lane, which
had some time previous been dignified
with the name of Bathurst street. Solid
ly built as the house was, the moving
proved rather destructive to it, and it
was found to be in need of extensive
repa rs and alterations. These were
made, with the result that the house
was greatly changed. It was made
somewhat, larger, and it is very doubt
ful if one of the ejarly residents of York
would recognize it to-day as the farm
house of ninety years ago. The aocom-
pa/nying illustration is from a pen and
ink sketch of the homestead by Mr.
Stephen Heward, whose mother is a
daughter of the late Mr. Crookshank.
The sketch shows the house as it was
originally. It is still standing, remote
from the street and hidden from view
by the trees and shrubs and vines that
aibound in the garden and lawn that
surround it. Mr. Brown is the present
| owner and occupant. The house is known
as 396 Bathurst street, and is oppo
site the house of Sir Casimir Gzowski,
which is built on a site that at one
time formed a part of the Crookshank
: farm

WHEN GEORGE IV WAS KING
i A Fac Simile of the Original Proclamation
at York (Toronto) by the Government of
Upper Cannd:: on the Accession of George
the Fourth to the Throne o? Great Britain.
The fac-simile reproduction from the
original copy of the proclamation by
the Government of Upper Canada of
the accession of George IV. to the
throne of Grea,t Britain gives a public
view of a, document belonging to a;
period in Canadian history when news
papers, official records and old docu
ments were scarce. The fire of 1813,
which destroyed the Parliament build
ings a,t the east end of Palace, now-
Front street, wiped out nearly all the
newspaper files from 1792-1813. Wha.t
the fire did not do in 1813 it accom
plished effectively in 1824, when the
second Parliament House in York, and
located on the same spot, was burned,

and if anything belonging to official
history remained, it was almost obli
terated as far as documents are con
cerned by the destruction of the Par
liament buildings by fire in Montreal
in 1849.
George IV. was the eldest son of
George III., and was born on 12th 1
August, 1762, and ascended the throne
on the 29th January, 1820, and died in
June, 1830.
The news of the death of George III.
must have been some weeks in reaching
America), for King George IV. was not
proclaimed at York until the 3rd ot
May, 1820. The, Legislature of Upper
Canada, was in session until 7th March,
1820, and up to tha,t date there is no
mention of the death ot George III. nor
of the accession of George IV. The new
Parliament of Upper Canada met on
the 31st January, 1821, a,nd in the 1
Speech from the Throne is a, reference
to the dea,th of the King and the acces-
sion of George IV.
The; proclamation. Is signed by the
Hon. Samuel Smith, who was admin
istrator of the Government of Upper
Canada during the absence ot Sir
Peregrine Maltla.nd, the Lieutenant-
Governor.
The document is countersigned by D.
Cameron (Duncan Cameron) the Secre
tary of the Executive Council.
There is no official record of the
reading of this proclamation. There axe
no Upper Canada, newspaper files for
1820, and none of the Lower Canadian
papers of that date refer to the pro
claiming of the King at York.
George III. had been King of Eng
land for more than thirty years when
the province of Upper Canada was
created, out of what was vaguely call
ed Canada previous to the time named.
The country thus designated was that
portion now included in the province of
Quebec and Ontario, which, by the Act
of 1791, became Lower and Upper Can
ada respectively.
The first public celebration of which
there is any record was that by the
Legislative Council and Commons
House of Assembly at their meetings
on the 5th and 6th day of February,
1806, when they passed a loyal con-
graitullatory address to King George
III. on the naval victory of Lord Nel
son at Trafalgar in the previous Octo
ber. It may be noted that it took more
than three months for the news of
Lord Nelson s victory and death to
traivel from Europe to York, Upper
Canada, ift not being received in the
latter place until February 1st, 1806.
Trafalgar was fought October 21st,
1805.
George IV., died June 26th, 1830, and
his next brother, William IV., (the Bail
or king) reigned in his stead. When
the news reached York it was at once
publicly announced by the crier, and
the then sheriff, W. B. Jarvis, pro
claimed William IV. as King.
The Patriot, then published in Kings
ton by Thomas Dalton, had the follow
ing remarks on the occasion:
George IV. has closed his illustrious
career amidst the regrets of his affec
tionate subjects." After several para
graphs of regrets for the deceased mon
arch, the article go-es on : " William
IV. is now our lawful Sovereign; to him
is due our undivided loyalty, which let
us manifest by keeping the closest
watch upon whoever may be his Secre
tary of State for the Colonies for the
time being."
It does not appear that any public
celebration of William IV s coronation
took place either in York or in Kings
ton, and the Montreal papers are si
lent on the point. The coronation took
place June 28, 1831.
All but seven years elapsed, when on
June 20th, 1837, William IV., lik ehis
predecessor, also died, and his niece,
our present Queen, ascended the throne.
The intelligence arrived in Toronto-
no longer York on August 2nd, 1837,
and was then and there announced, and
again did Sheriff W. B. Jarvis read
the young Queen s proclamation. This
was somewhat of a ceremony, _ the
sheriff accompanied by various officials
going in an open conveyance, first to
the City Hall, and then to Government
House, in front of each place reading
the proclamation. Among those with
him were the local members of Parlia
ment, the clerk of the Executive Coun
cil, Mr. John Beikie, the Mayor of To
ronto, Mr. Powell, and others.
The Queen s coronation took place at
Westminster Abbey, on June 28th, 1838,
amidst great pomp and ceremony, and
was not by any means allowed to pass
unnoticed in Toronto. Here a grand
procession of the firemen of the city
under the direction of the then Chief
of the Brigade, the late Mr. Thomas
Denny Harris, paraded the streets.
The order of the procession was as
follows: First came the bands of
the two militia regiments, the
Queen s Rangers and the Queen s
Foresters, then the chief officers of
the brigade, viz., Thomas D. Harris,
chief engineer; Richard Woodsworth,
assistant engineer; Robert Beard,
David. Paterson and Jas. H- Westland,
the first two of whom were chiefs of
the Hook and Ladder Company and

la ter was the secretary.
Following the officers was a fireman
wiio carried a rctase, gilded from top
to bottbm and surmounted by a lion.
Then came two /silk bannsrs with em
blematic devices, one having the word
"Victoria" in its centre, surrounded
by a wr eath of the rose, shumroc c and
thistle, and underneath "British Su
premacy." Tiie other banner had a
representation o! the British-American
fire engine on it, and the name OL the
company underneath the engine. Forty
firemen were with the engine, which
was gaily decollated. The firemen were
arrayed in scarlet jackets and white,
trousers. These banners were painted
by Alexander Hamilton. On the engine
was a painting representing the death
of Wolfe an i. the taking of Quebec.
Then came two more flags, the work of
H irt & March, ani the hoo : and lad-
dier waggton, followed: by six axemen
and 28 fir^nien then was borne the
Royal Standard, and the rear was
brought up by more firemen. The route
of the procession was along Yonge and
King streets to) the Garrison common,
where it dispersed. Royal salutes were
fired from the Old Fort, and a public
banquet tooi placa in the evening, and
fireworks.
In Kingston th/e day was observed
by the ladies of that place presenting

place at night, and during thi day
there was a boat race at Barnefield.
In Montreal and Quebec the dav was
celebrated by military parades, and all
through the two provinces the occasion
was not allowed to pass by unnoticed.

CHAPTER LVII.
AN OLD RESIDENT OF YORK-
An Interesting Story, Covering Ninety
Years, by Mr. Charles Si-ymonr, t Ot
tawa, who Resided In the Town of York
(Toronto) In 1811.
Mrs. Charles Seymour, of Ottawa, is
the only person alive who resiled in
York, now Toronto, in 1811. Mrs. Sey
mour Ls the eldest child of the late Dr.
. Grant Powell, the third son of the late
Chief Justice Powell. Mrs. John Pow
ell, of Toronto, is a younger sister of
: Mrs. Seymour.
The story told by Mrs. Seymour is
| an interesting one, and it is wonderful
to hear her, sitting in a comfortable
armchair in her residence on Vittoria
! street, Ottawa,, recount tie events of
; her lifetime.
Mrs. Seymour was born at Balstor.
Spring, N. Y., in 1806, and was the
eldest child of Dr. Grant Powell, the
third son of Chief Justice Powell. The
Powells are of Welsh extraction.
I When Detroit, then the county of
Heese, with other British possessions
in America, was ceded to the United
States authorities in 1784, Chief Jus
tice Powell s father, who at that time
resided there, left the country, but
his son ; Chief Justice Powell, after
Peace was proclaimed between the two
I countries, returned to America, mar-
; rie.l in Boston Miss Anne Murray, a
j Norwich lady, who was visiting rela-
! tives there, and eventually with her
settled in York (Toronto), and, as a
U. E. Loyalist, became the possessor of
several grants of land in different parts
of the province. His son, Dr. Grant
Powell, however, remained behind in
England, for the purpose of finishing
his me Ucal studies, and after obtaining
hLs diploma, also came out to America,
but settled in the United States, where
he for some years practised his profes
sion at Balston Springs, N. Y. in 1805
he married Miss Eliza BJeecker, eldest
daughter of Major John R. Bleecker,
of Albany, whose ancestors came to Al
bany from Amsterdam in Holland in
1610, and bought large tracts of land,
which include a portion of the present
site of New York.
When their daughter was about three
years of age Dr. and Mrs. Powell left
Balston Springs for Canada.
Their first resting place was at Mont
real, where they remained for about
two years, coming to Toronto in 1811
by batteaux, and landing at the King s
(now r tha Queen s) wharf, and then at
Allan s wharf, at the foot of Sher-
bourne (Caroline) street.
In less than a year after their ar
rival at York war was declared between
the two countries, and Mrs. Seymour,
although at the time not quite six
years of age, has still a distinct re
membrance of the taking of York by
the American troops. Mrs. Grant Pow
ell, her mother, had issued invitations
for a party to be held on the 27th
April. Mrs. Seymour says she well
rememoers the guests were slow

in arriving. One or two ladies
came, but not a gentleman, and all
present were feeling excited and un
comfortable, dreading they knew not
what. The suspense was at last ended
by tile hurried entrance of her father,
who informed them that the American
fleet had been sighted. He told his
wife to take the child and maid ser
vants and go at once to Mrs. McGill s
cottage, which stood in the centre of
the now Metropolitan church square.
This they did without loss of time. Dr.
Powell also said that what was most
required by the Canadians was food,
they not having been prepared for the
attack. Consequently, the following
morning, Mrs. Seymour says, all the
ladies at Mrs. McGill s were hard at
work preparing provisions for the
troop,?, some making bread, while she
and Bishop Strachan s son, James, were
first sent out to pick up chips to keep
the fire alight while the provisions
were being cooked.
The following morning Miss Powell
went with her mother and nurse to
their home, which they found a scene
of desolation. The supper table, which
had given her so much pleasure to
admire the night before, had evidently
been well appreciated by the invaders.
The house had been ransacked by the
Americans, who, she presumed, were
looking for public papers, mistaking it
for that of her grandfather, Chief Jus
tice Powell.
At one of the doors a six-foot Am
erican lounged, breaking- pieces off a
cone of lump sugar. Bessy Walters^
the nurse, walked up to the man and
snatched it away from him, at the
same time berating him for stealing
her mistress property, adding that she
wished he would go home and mind
his own business. "I guess I wish I
could," was the reply. "Where is your
home?" asked Mra. Powell. "Down to
Stillwater, New York," was the reply.
"I ve one of Major Bleecker s farms."
AJI answer which caused some amuse
ment to them both, when Mrs. Powell
told him that Major Bleecker was her
father.
Mrs. Seymour, when a girl, went to
school in York. The school house was on
the west aide erf Gjoorge street, "a* long
wooden house" painted blue and kept
by a Mrs. Goodman. A Miss Russell
taught music, a*id a Miss Sherman, a
teacher, had chcwrge of the house. Mrs.
Goodmajv had a son, a doctor, who
livd and poractwad in St. Catharines.
In 1831 Miss PowN married Mr. Sey-
, an officer of tie Cominissiai uMj
fc, and with him left at once
for the West Indies, where he was sta
tioned. They arrived at Barbadoes the
j day after a great hurricane which
nearly devastated the island, and she
says that the state) of chaos and desola
tion that greeted them was almost
| beyond description. On Mrs. Sey
mour s arrival she was taken to the
Garrison, and there found several of
the of f iceTs wives marvellously arrayed,
but Mrs. Smith s costume bore aiway
the pa|m. She was a, pretty, bright-
eyed, curly-haired brunette, and her
dress consisted of a: pair of her hus
band s trousers, turned well up at the
ankle, showing two Jittle feet in slip
pers and stockings much too large ior
her; a shell jacket, belonging to one
officer, a dressing gown of another and
a, forage cap, belonging to a third, com
pleted her costume. One unfortunate
woman, whose little son was born dur
ing the storm, had the baby blown out
ot the nurse s arms into a prickly hedge,
alive, but with a thorn through its
cheek. Fifteen years afterwards Mrs.
Seymour, who was then a widow, liv
ing at GueJph to be near her brother.
Judge Powell, noticed in front of her
in church a singularly pJain lad, with
a. peculiar scar on his cheek, and on
enquiry discovered that that was the
identical baby, whose parents had come
to reside in. Canada.
Shortly before Mrs. Seymour and her
husband went to Barbadoes a circum
stance occurred in one of the adjoin
ing islands which may be of interest
\ here.
A vessel, more than suspected, of be
ing a pirate ship, for which the au
thorities had been on the look-out for
some months, was seized and her cap
tain and crew taken into custody. Cir
cumstantial evidence was strong against
the men, but in consequence of there
being no ship s papers found nothing
could absolutely be \fcroved against
them, and they, of course, strongly pro
tested their innocence and complained
bitterly of the injustice to which they
were subjected. At Last It was decided
that unless further proof of their guilt
could be procured by a certain date
they should be set at liberty. But the
day prior to the date fixed for their
release a shark was caught off Ja
maica, in the stomach of which, on it
beitag out open, was found the missing
paper and other evidence ot importance.
The pirates, knowing there wae no fur
ther hope for their release, made a full
confession of all their misdeeds, and the
captain was sentenced to be hanged.
The document taken from the shark s
stomach hae been framed, and

hangs on the walls of the Public Insti
tute in Kingston, Jamaica, where i
was seen in 1896 by the wnter or this
iinrberview. The officer in command: at
the wretched man s execution, and to
whom he had previously surrendered
his sword, presented that sword to Mr.
Seymour. But the story does not
end here. The event above narrated
occurred somewhere about 1831. In
1859, years after Mrs. Seymour s return
to Canada and subsequent widowhood,
her niece, Miss Stuart, married Mr.
Wyndham, a Wiltshire gentleman, who
had come out to settle in Canada and
bought land opposite Belle Ewart, on
Lake Simcoe, on which stood a pretty
house. As the young people decided to
spend the first year ot their married
life in England, amongst Mr. Wynd-
ham s people, and did not care about
leaving their handsome new furniture,
etc., entirely to the care of servants,
Mrs. Seymour and her daughter, who
had been living for some time in Nia
gara, decided to move up to Lake Sim
coe and occupy the Wyndhams house
until their return. One day a farmer
called to ask whether they, as the only
gentlepeople in the neighbourhood,
would have any objection to receive as ;
their guest the Methodist minister, who
was to hold mission services in that
part of the country. Of course, no ob-
jeotioa \vas made, and they consequent
ly had the pleasure of entertaining a
most charming man a clever gentle
man, and possessed of a large fund of
anecdote. Amongst other things, he
told them the story above related, say
ing, moreover, that he, at that time
a clergyman of the Church of England,
had been with the pirate captain, pre
paring the poor fellow for his death.
His astonishment can be imagined wihen
Mns. Seymour produced the sword and
told him how; it had come into her pos
session. This sword, in a dinged and
dinted steel scabbard, with its blade
notched, stained and rusted, was un
fortunately lost in 1868, somewhere be
tween Montreal and Ottawa. Mrs. Sey
mour was at that time living with her
son, Grant Seymour, who, as secretary
to the Adjutant-General, had been sta
tioned in Montreal. When they re
moved to Ottawa the* sword was lost.
After seven years spent in the West
Indies, Mrs. Seymour, whose 1 health
had been siufferimg from the climate,
was sent home to Camada.
She arrived in Toronto in 1838, just
after the rebellion, and. later on her
husband, who was obliged to leave the
service on account of ill-health, joined
her, and ere long they removed to
Streetsyiile, where, in 1843, Mr. Sey
mour died.
Mrs. Seymour returned to Eoronto
and resided in the cottage which stood
on the north side of Richmond street,
midway between Simcoe and York
streets. She left Toronto to 1859. ajnd
joined her son, Grant, in Quebec, he
having 1 given up his law studies fpi*
the sake of a position) in the civil ser
vice, which enabled him to provide a
home for his mother and sister, which
he did until the date of his death, in
September, 1893. Since then Mrs. Sey
mour and her daughter have lived in
Ottawa. Mrs. Seymour will be ninety-
one, years of age Tuesday , 24th August,
1897.
CHAPTER LVIIL
1 HE MERCHANTS EXCHANGE.
The Building in Which the Corn Exchange
and Board of Trade Met for Many Years.
The picture shows what is now the
north-west corner of Wellington street
and Leader lane. Wellington street
was originally Market street. Hhe lane
or alley to the east of the Exchange
was originally kmown as Berczy street.
The sixth post-office, before its removal
to the west side of Toronto street ftthe
Receiver-General s office) stood on this
corner. Mr. Berczy was the postmas
ter. He gave the property that made
this lane or alley, and the name should
never have been changed.
This corner was a busy centre on
| week days, a.nd on Sunday mornings,
I when the post-office was opened for an
hour or so, it was frequented by al.
the business men in Toronto. To the
east, at the delta of Wellington and
Church streets, the stage lines, which
ran from Toronto to Kingston, and also
to Hamilton, had their starting points.
This building was one of the finest
architectural ornaments of the city.
The design was by Mr. Joseph Grand,
the architect, under whose superm-

Exchange is 50 feet by 30 of -in
oval form, by a height of about

there are three staircases leading to
the corridor on the second floor; the
arrangement of private offices on this
floor being similar to that of the firs
floor. At the north end of the corridor
there is the entrance to a handsome
gallery surrounding the inner wall ot
the Exchange, and communicating
therefrom with private offices, com
mittee rooms, and a suite of rooms set
apart for the meetings of the Board ot
Trade. The basement is approached by
four entrances (two on Wellingtoi

with bathrooms, barber s shop, Private
offices and Housekeeper s rooms. Each
floor has water closets and other con
veniences, and were always thoroughly j
supplied with water from cisterns hold- j
ing in the aggregate three thousand
gallons of water. The public portions <
of the building are heated by furnaces,
and each corridor has two hydrants and
hose, which, in case of fire, can be at
tached and brought to bear upon any
part pf the building. Each office has
a fire-proof vault; water led on to sup
ply & wash hand basin in each room,
and water pipes to carry foul water
away; and is also furnished with gas
pipes. The building covers an area of
nearly 8,000 superficial feet, and art
composed oi a rusticated basement, A)
feet high, on each side of the portico,
supporting the cornice, which is sur
mounted by Ionic pilasters and entabla
ture, finished on the top by balustrad-
ing, the piers at each end ornamented
with vases, and the centre with the
royal arms.
The Exchange was occupied as such
until 1877, when the lower por
tion of the building was altered and
tenanted by the Imperial Bank.
189(5 the bank added a large building
to the west of the original building, and
remodelled the entire old structure,
turning the upper parts of the build
ing into suites of offices, and making
it altogether a most modern and at
the same time a convenient and com
fortable building for tenants.
CHAPTER LIX.
THE BLOCK HOUSES-
The Log Fortifications t lint Served for the
OeJencc of Toronto from 1793 to 1837.
The first fortifications at Toronto, or
rather York, were built in 1793-4 by
Governor Simcoe, when the Fort at
the west end of the city wus laid out.
Batteries were erected, commanding
the entrance to the harbour, and
within the fort grounds a block house
was erected. This block house was de
stroyed by the Americans in 1813, but
it was re-built about 1815, and between
1820-25 a second block house, to the
eiast of the first one, was erected.
In a plan of York Harbour, made
in 1813, and published by Bouchette in
1832 a block house is shown on the
east side of the creek, known as the
Garrison Creek, which ran from the
northern limits of the city down on
the east side of the Fort entrance, but
there is no evidence of such a block
house as late as 1845. and the oldest
inhabitant cannot remember it.
The second block house, built prior
to 1800, was at Gibraltar Point, now
Hanlan s Point. This block house stood
about midway between the man-hole
of the water-works at Hanlan s and the
cribwork now used by the Ferry Com
pany as a promenade. An original
of this is showa in Irving s picture of
York, 1818-20, now in possession of
Mrs. Stephen Heward.
To the south of Heber s wharf five
hundred feet, stood a storehouse, built
by Governor SLmcoe. Supplies for the
block house were kept in this building,
which was also used as a barracks for
a dozen men.
Of the city block houses the most
important was one on the bank of the
Don, near the site of the old jail now
the site of the Gas works. This block
house was destroyed by the Americans
in 1813.
There has been some dispute as to
the exact spot on which this block
house stood. Some writers claim that
it was on the east side of the Don, but
the best authorities state that it was
on the west side of " The Little Don
for in 1796-1815 the Don was a delta
at its mouth, one entrance being known
as "The Little Don" and tie other
as " The Don." The block house stood
in the line of Berkeley street, south of
Palace (Front) street southwards, <
the point where the Little Don enter
ed the Bay. It was designed to protect
Se road o y r track leading to the penin
sula., where there was a landing place

on the south shore. There is now no
double 1 entrance or delta at the Don, as
the river by dredging has been made
to flow in one str&am into Toronto Bay.
Another block house, which was built
prior to 1800, was located on a steep
mound, which overlooked a creek that
was part of the Garrison Creek at Gore
Vale, on Queen street, near Niagara
street. This block house was destroyed
before 1820.
The modern block houses which sur
rounded the city were those at the
head of Sherbourne street, a picture
of which is given with this Landmark.
It stood on the exact line of Bloor
street going east, at the east end of
this road and in the middle, just over
the steep descent to the valley of the
Don, to avoid which precipitous de
scent the road turned aside southwards
towards Sherbourne street. Mr. Hirsch-
felder s hofose and grounds were imme
diately south of this block house. It
was built in 1837-8, at the time of the
rebellion troubles, so as to protect the
city from the north.
Another block house stood at the
head of Spadina avenue, on the site of
the preseint Broadway Tabernacle, and a
third stood on the east side of Yonge
street, directly opposite BeJmont street,
and overlooking the ravine.
All these block houses were built on
the same plan and were designed to
protect the city in the trying days of
1837-38.
An earth-work stood for years, from
1812-20, at the junction of King and
Queen streets, in the delta now occu
pied by a frame building. Mr. William
Helliwell, writing in June, 1896, says :
" There was at the junction of King
and Queen streets, on the west side
of the Don, the remains of an earth
work battery, said to be armed with
a twelve-pound cannon during the war
at 1812. There was no stockade, but
simply the remains oJ an earth-work.
The land surrounding it was bush. I
enclose you a rough sketch of the lo
cality as I first knew it in 1821."
This sketch shows the earthwork and
bush on each side of it. The gun faced
the Don bridge.
This battery was not finally demol
ished in 1850, remains of it still being
visible up to that year.

directory for the city of To
ronto in 1864 states that Sullivan
street commences at Beverley street
and runs west to Spadina avenue, and,
furthermore, that only the north side
had buildings on it, the first being
the Protestant Orphans Home, of
which Mrs. Mary Holmes was mat
ron, and west of this the house of
Samuel Coyne, at that time head mas
ter in Phoebe street Public school. The
rest of. the land, north and west, was
uncleared, or, as the directory puts it,
"vacant lote." This was also the con
dition of the laoid on the south side
of the street.
Such, then, was Sullivan street in
i 1864. The directory for 1897 shows that.
here, as everywhere else in Toronto,
the march of improvement is manifest.
Where once the Orphans Home stood
there is a row of modern dwelling
houses. The residence of Mr. Coyne
has been supplanted in like manner.
The "vacant lots" have vanished. Upon
the one situated wes:, of the Orphans
Home, in the sixties, Beverley street
Baptist church has been built. The
south side of the street has been built
up, amd the lots on the north side
have also been utilized as "building
sites.
But, "to return to our mutton." The
Protestant Orphans Home was origin
ated in 1851. WJhen Jenny Lind visited
Toronto on her musical tour through
America she gave a concert in St.
Lawrence Hall, the proceeds of which
\\ere 1o be devoted to the founding
of some charity i ommemorative of the
| event. Mr. J. G. Bov.es, then Mayor
! o the city, having entertained tin.-
; Swedish nightingale at his own house
| during her stay in the city, was en
trusted with the application of the
money. After consultation with some
friends, it was resolved to found an
Orphans Home and Female Aid So
ciety. The preliminary steps having
been taken, a temporary home wa
opened in 185i2, in a building on Bay
street, for the reoeption of that class
of persons for whom the charity had
been established. In 1854 a site was
presented by Hon. Robert Baldwin and
Hon. William Cayley jointly, through
the kindly intercession of the Jat Dr
Rees, a prominent physician, a per
manent home was erected on Sullivan
street in thte year in whiuh (.he site
was presented. The building origin
ally was a large, square, three-storey
affair, and was calculated to accommo
date about thirty childreo, with their
attendants. It was found necessary to
add a two-si orey win.? on the west side

in 1861. Three years later a second
wing was adde.l, giving the building
the appearance shown in the cut, and
affording altogether accommodation
for about seventy children. The build
ing was pleasantly situated, and the
grounds which contained it were at
the time of its erection of ample size
for the requirements of the institu
tion
The last wing was added in conse
quence of the need there was felt for
an infirmary. Early in the year 1864
an epidemic of measles and similar dis
eases broke out among the inmates,
and in one month eighteen children
died. This showed the necessity of hav
ing an infirmary, so the wing was
built.
This gave the institution amH
capacity for the care of all the inmates
of the place at the time. As yea; <
went by, however, the Home s circle
of usefulness increased, and soon the
management saw that the institution
was be.oinins overcrowded.
Accordingly, in 1882, a new site was
selected, and a much larger and more
capacious building was erected on the
wes! side of Dovercourt road, south
of College street. Thie original build
ing on Sullivan street was then sold
a.nd torn dovvn not long afterwards.
It was from the proceeds of the sale
of this property, coupled with don
ations from friends of the society, that
the present site was bought and the
home built.
The management of the institution
is entrusted to a committee of ladies,
chosen annually at a meeting of the
members of the society. The home was
at its commencement supported and
conducted by Protestants of various
denominations indiscriminately. Con
tributions came in from men of all
opinions. The Freemasons of Toronto
in 1855 contribute! $80. Many of the
Orange Lodges in the province con
tributed various sums. Rev. John
Strachan, Bishop of Toronto, in 1857
contributed $600.
The institution subsequently be
came decidedly Episcopalian in char
acter, owing in a great measure to
the energy of the chaplain. It was
determined to have the new home
opened by the bishop of the diocese, in
order to determine its character; but
owing to a communication received
from the secretary, a young lady be
longing to the Presbyterian denomin-
aUon, his Lordship refused to comply
with the resolution that had been
passed, providing that "a school shall
always form part of the establishment,
and religious instruction of the Church
of England shall be included in the
; daily education of the school."
In consequence of expressions of dis-
i approval of her action, the secretary
; resigned her office. The Bishop was
j asked to reconsider his decision, but
I refused to do so; so that the institu-
; tion was not opened with any public
ceremony. Tame, however, has soothed
the animosity excited by injured feel
ings.
The matron of the original build
ing was Mrs. Mary Holmes. In 1865
: Mrs Large succeeded to her position.
i In 18-38 Miss Wheelwright was appoint-
: ed matron. She occupied the position
! for twenty-eight years. In 1897 the
: matron of the home was Miss Deacon.
The first directress in 1852 was Mrs.
Widder, who held the position for two
years. Mrs. John Cawthra was the first
; directress for 1817.
CHAPTER LXI.
KEARSNEY HOUSE.
The Residence 01 a Well Known Bait!;,
President and Toronto Merchant oi t!u-
Earlier Time.
The large white brick housr 1 on the
I east side of Yonge street, known as
No. 591, was built by the late Mr. Wil
liam Proudfoot in 1848, and named by
him Kearsney House. When built it
was entirely in the country and was
surrounded by several acres of arable
land. The only other britok residence,
in its immediate vicinity was a small
brick cottage, still remaining, on the
south-east corner of Yonjge and Wo>l-
lesiey streets, ocouipted in 1850-51 by
Mr. Alley. Mr. Michie s house, on the
same side of Yonge street as Mr.
Proudfoot s, was built about the same
time as the latter.
Mr. Proudfoot was a Scotchman by
bitrth, and came to Canada in his youth.
For many years he was in business
on the south-west corner of Ktag and
Frederick streets, at that time an
important business centre. He dealt in
"wines, groceries and dry goods,
wholeile and retail." So ran his ad
vertisement. Up to 1843 he resided at
No. 8 Duke street, closely adjacent,
to, and almost opposite 1 what was then
the .Bank of Upper Canada, now La
Salle Institute. For many years Mr
Proudfoot was a director of the Bank
of Upper Canada, and for some Time
its president. Mr. Proudfoot resided
in Kearsney House until about Bz,
when the residence passed into the pos
session of Mr. Robert Ca-ssels, who m

1869 disposed of it to its present oc-
cujiant, Mr. Donald Mackay.
In former years Kearsnsy House was
often the scene of the most hearty hos
pitality, and. for those days, sumptuous
entertainments. On one occasion Mr.
Proudfoot presided, over quite an ex
tensive fancy fair, which was held in
the drawing room, a magnificent apart
ment seventy-five feet in length by
twenty-five wide. It was in 1850, not
very long after Mr. Proudfoot had
gone into possession. During the pre
sent occupancy of Mr. Mackay, that
gentleman on one occasion entertained
the whole of the members of the Gen
eral Assembly of the Church of Scot
land in Canada, a total of rather more
than four hundred guests.
! This was the first saw mill erected in
! or near Toronto and was built by Par-
; shall Terry, who had. been a lieutenant
j in Butler s Rangers, and served all

i shall Terry was one of a very large
I family of sons and daughters, his father
also Parshall Terry, came from the New-
England State of Connecticut, and set

Parshall Terry, jun., was the only one
of his family who did not espouse the
cause of the American colonists, he re
mained steadfast in his allegiance to
King George III., and on the disband-

Both Mr. and Mrs. Proudfoot died
many years since, and the only sur
vivors of the family now reside in Great
Britain, far from the scene of their
early years. Kearsney House, when
first erected, was the finest residential
building in the city, and even now,
after fifty years, it still retains its
character, as one among the best of our
citizen s homes.

Toronto Island is made up of shifting
materials, and the marks of habitati .
upon it seem to shift quite as much as
the very sand of the Island itself. The
smaller cut accompanying this land- ;
mark gives a good idea of Hanlan s j
Point thirty years ago, but very few
will recognize the locality shown. The
long wharf Qccupted almost the same
site 1 as that of the old wharf running
out into Blockhouse Bay from the
Island electric power house, just north
of the Banian Ferry Company wharf.
Of the! long low building at the head
of the wharf few traces remain. It was
built by Ned Banian s father in 1862,
and it was here that John Hanlan, the
boathouse keeper, aaid his brother
Edward, the famous oarsman, were
raised. The " old homestead," as they
speak of it, was torn down a dozen
years ago; part of it was moved back
to the shore of the lagoon, and is now
used as a boathouse. Rather amusing
is the account of the choosing of this
home. Mr. Hanlan, ST., at first lived in
a house down near the eastern gap.
During a terrific gr/le this place was
washed away by the roaring waters of
thei lake. As soon as the storm was
over the family, nothing daunted, gath
ered their scattered timbers together,
built a raft, on which they placed their
property, and drifted up the bay, with
a fair east wind. They ehaneeo to
ground at the present Ha,nlan s Point,
and here they built their home and
left a name.
The wharf shown In the cut was de
stroyed, by the Ice, one spring. A huge
ice barrier, fifteen feet high at^ the
lowest place, was piled up against it by
the wind and waves, and next morning
the wharf was gone.
The small building in the centre of i
the picture was used as a shooting
gallery. It also has disappeared. The
gabled house adjoining it is still stand-
ing, in nearly the same position, though i
somewhat altered. For a long time^it !
was occupied by Mrs- Durnan, the sis- !
ter of John Hanlan, sr. It is now used i
as a restaurant. Near it there used to j
be a small shed, where boats were \
kept for hilre. It has also been torn
down.
Th small building in the extreme
]ft of the cut was also used as a boat-
house. It was here that Ned Hanlan
use! to keep his shells, when he was
champion oarsman. A separate view of
it, with the shells referred to, is shown
in the larger picture. The building was
torn down some years ago.
The wreckage on the beach, in the
left of the smaller picture, formed part
oi" a large scow. It formed the play
ground of the young Hanlana and
their companions.
CHAPTER LXIV.
THE DON VALE HOUSE.
An Old Time Hostelry and Kesorl of the
Sporting Fraternity It* HUtory and
Proprietors.
The two cuts given with this article
represent an old-tfime tavern once the
frequent resort of the sportilnig fra
ternity of the, city, alnd where many
contests in tihe now obsolete spOrt of
cock figihting were not only arra-nged
but brought off in the sheds adjoining
the taivern.
Tihe Don Vale House tavern was
erected as a dwelling house about sixty
years ago, towards the end of the
"forties," and was soon, after turned
into a public house. In 1855 the land
lord was Da,vid Priestley, and the
thoroughfare whetreon it stjotod on the
north side being a continuation of
Winchester street, was known as Don
Road. No other hojuse was very near
it, Priestley s next neighbour being a
widow named Moore, wh(o resided in a
cottage about one hundred yards dis
tant. Mr. Priestley continued to oc
cupy the tavern until 1860, when he
was followed by John Htolgg, who con
tinued as the proprietor for about
five years. After Hogg gaive> up the
tenancy the tajverta. passed into the
possession of Gedrlge Fox, who in ad
dition to keeping the tavern was also
a slater and contractor. In 1870 Mr.
Fox gave up the tavern and removed
his other business to 68 Queen street
east. Then for a considerable time the
house remained un tenanted, and even
tually about 1875 or 1876 was pulled
down, and the old place passed away,
nothing being left to tell of it, ex
cepting a woocton sign, recording that
on that spot, the extreme north-east
corner of Winchester street to the
south-east of the Necropolis, stood the
Dtn Vale House. This old-time hos
telry was onte/ of a class of taverns
common enough in tihe suburbs of the
city forty years ago. They were places
where men went in the evenings,
after their day s work, being just
far enough reanoved from the centre
of the city to give their patrons a

There was a window on each side, pro

was in 1837, and the directory of that
date states that "this office is about to

York Chambers," was erected. These !
buildings were afterwards the Revere
House, now the Kensington Hotel.
The building or cottage on the north
west corner was the College Land Of
fice, the Hon. Lieut.-Col. Joseph Wells
being the secretary, and about 1856 be
came a city police office, and was final
ly removed to make room for a block
of stores, which eventually became an
hotel, now known as the Palmer House.
Col. .Wells occupied this office in 1837.
commanded the British garrison, or
dered her destruction, to prevent her
capture by the eoiemy.
Such was the fate of Toronto s first
great sailing vessel. The last one was
built In 1854. Both before and since
that date many schooners were built
at this port, some of which are still
afloat. They were, as a rule, only in
tended for lake navigation, and were
mostly of comparatively small tonnage.
Very few of them were of above three
hundred tons register.

SHIPS BUILT IN THIS PORT.
AB Account of the First Large Ship and !
LJM i Hulling YeMl ot Great Size Built In
Toronto.
Trading vessels have been built at
this place ever since it was made a
British trading post. It was not until
1812, however, that a snip, in the more
restricted sense of the word, was built.
The vessels constructed prior to
this were all small traders sloops,
cutters or schooners, varying from
thirty to fifty feet in length, and never
exceeding one hundred tons in burden.
The ship mentioned was intended for
military purposes. She never reached
her element, WJhen the town cap
itulated to the Americans in the
spring of 1813, this vessel was still on
the Mocks, and General Sheaffe. who
982-9, will be found a fairly complete
list of vessels built in York and
Toronto.
On Saturday, September Hth<, 1799,
the U. C. Gazette says: "The Toronto
yacht, Capt. Baker, will in the coarse
of a few days be ready to make her
first trip. She is one of the handsomest
vessels of her size that ever swam upon
the Ontario; and if we are permitted
to judge from her appearance, and to
do her justice, we must say she bids
fair to be one of the swiftest sailing
vessels. She is admirably calculated for
the reception of passengers, and can
with propriety boast of the most ex
perienced officers and men. Her master-
builder was a Mr. Dennis, an Ameri
can, on whom, she reflects great hon

vessel was built on the Humber River.
The name Dennis is carelessly given
in the Gazette as Denuison. The first

was therefore the Toronto yacht,
1799; then the Bella Gk>re, in 1809,
followed by the Dove and Reindeer in i
1814. The tonnage of these vessels is
unknown, but it was not more than
50 tons. The Jane, 1815; John Walker s, -
90 tons, 1819; Lady Sarah, 100 tons,
1819; and ihe Richmond, 100 tons, 1819.
In 1824 tiie Toronto, 200 tons, was built,
and in 1828 the Canadian, 70 tons; the i
George IV., 80 tons, in 1828; and the
George Canning, of 80 tons, in 1828. A
to\vboat, called the City of Toronto, i
500 tons, was built in 1840, and the |
Scotland, of 500 tons, in 1847. The Cigar, i
a ferry boat, was built in 1849, and j
the Peninsula Packet in 1849. The last
two used steam ; The Citizen, ferry
steamer, was built in Toronto in 1853,
and the Victoria in 1853; the City of
Toronto (Hayes Bros.) in 1854; the
King of Algiers, a towboat, in 1856;
the Alliance and Union, two schooners,
were built about 1853-5 ; the Ripple
and Princess of Wales were built in
1864; the Garden City in 1892; the Prow-
ctt Bey about 1890; the Luella in 1879;
the Canadian in 1882; and the Kath
leen, Gertrude and Mascotte in 1886;
the Mayflower and Primrose in 1890
the last eight were ferry steamers
the W. J. Tymon in 1892; the Ongiara
in 1885; the Chippewa in 1896.
In 1854, however, Messrs. Hayes Bros.,
who had a ship yard on Front street, ;
then at the water s edge directly op
posite the Queen s Hotel, laid the keel
of a vessel of more than usual size,
mtended for use on salt water. This
idea coi*ld scarcely be said to be original
with them. Two years before a 300-
ton vessel called the Cherokee was
built at Kingston, and came up to this
port and sailed from here for Liver
pool A couple of years later two
more vessels were built in Cantlin s
yard, Kingston, for Captain Gaskin.
They also were intended for salt water.
But these vessels could not compare
in any particular with the City of
Toronto, as Messrs. Hayes Brothers
called their ship.
The picture of the launch shows the
shipyard below Front street, on what
is now the Esplanade. Tiie Queen s
Hotel ia to the left, the yard in the
centre, and Jacques & Hays factory
to the right. The drawing was made
on the spot by William Armstrong, C.E.
She was of a thousand tons burden,
and although of comparatively light
draught, her size precluded all possi
bility of her being employed in the
lake trade. The view published with
this landmark, shows her just a few
minutes before the launch. Tihe "News
of the Week" of June 2, 1855, says ot
the new ship :
"We publish to-day a view of the
launch of the ship City of Toronto from
the yard of the builders, Messrs.
Hayes Bros. & Co. This vessel being the
first ever built fn Toronto for ocean
navigation, a good deal of interest has
been evinced by our citizens generally
in her progress from the first. The
corporation unanimously passed reso
lutions, highly complimentary to the
enterprise df the Messrs. Hayes, in
thus inaugurating a new and very im
portant branch of industry in Toronto,
and voted them (a complete set of col
ours for their jnew ship.
"The keel of the City of Toronto was
laid in May, 1854, and she was launched
on the 3rd April, 1855. thus occupying
twelve months in construction, and she
is pertainly an admirable specimen Df
what our good city is capable of pro
ducing in marine architecture. She has
been built under the superintendence
of Mr. A. MacPhie, formerly of Quebec,
and under the inspection of Lloyd s
surveyor, and the builders expect that
she v^ill class Al for ten years in
Lloyd s books, although no colonial
built ships have vet been classed for
more than eight years. There is no
good reason, however, why a vessel
built in U ( pper Canada, if she be con
structed of good material and the
workmanship be of an equally good
character, should not rank as one built
on the Thames. A very strong preju
dice exists against Canadian timber for
shipbuilding purposes in England,
much of which arises from the preva
lence /of dry rot, and we are strongly
impressed with the conviction that the
tendency to this particular form of
disease in Canadian timber arises in a
great measure from two causes, which
we will mention; the first is that much
of the oak and elm. timber, which ia
used in our lower ports, is cut at . the
wrong sfeason, when the sa*p is out ot
the tree; the second and most effectual
eause of dry rot is that heretofore the
great bulk of Canadian oak, which baa
reached the shores of Great Britain,
either In the log or in the shape of
vessels, has been, none less than two
years, and most of it for a longer pe
riod, exposed to the alternate action
of water and air in the process ol trans
port through the western rivers and
lakes and in the tide way at Quebec.
The consequence is that it becomes
thorough 13- impregnated with Animal-
cula, and dry rot inevitably follows.
"To avoid th)e evils arising from these
causes and give Canadian oak a fair
trial, the builders of the City of To
ronto selected a timber growing in the
woods near Newmarket, on the line

of the Northern railway, had it cut
and hauled to the cars in the winter
of 1853, and they feel confident that
the greatest advantages will be found
from this plan in the strength and
durability of the ship. We hope their
expectations will r oe realized, and that
the committee of Lloyd s will appreci
ate the advantages which such a ves
sel must possess over those built in the
usual manner.
"The City of .Toronto ia constructed
entirely of selected upland white oak.
She is fastened with Long Island locust
trenails and yellow metal bolts from
stem to stern. The scantling of her
timbers, beams and plank and sizes of
bolts and other fastenings are all some
what fuller than are required by
Lloyd s specifications for a ship of her
size, her builders being determined to
make an exceedingly strong and ser
viceable vessel. Her dimensions are:
Length of deck, 168 feet; length of
keel, 1561-2 feet; depth of hold amid-
ship, 18 1-2 feet; height between deck,
61-2 feet; breadth of beam for tonnage,
321-2 feet.
"She has a spacious poop cabin aft,
which will afford good accommodation
for passengers, and a roomy topgallant
forecastle for the crew. She is fitted
with a large patent windlass of great
power, and two corpstairs, and is to be
a full rigiged ship. The cordage was
manufactured in Belfast, from the best
Bussian h<emp. The canvas is from the
celebrated Gonrock Mills, in Scotland,
and ie the same as that used in the
Royal Navy. The sails were made by
Messrs. Bobeson & Sons, of this city.
"The ship now lies alongside Tinning s
wharf, where she is being fitted for
sea, and on the Queen s Birthday
formed an object of great attraction
to country visitors to the city."
This was the first sea-going vessel
built here, and, up to her time, the
laargeat ocean vessel built in UppefrCan-
alda. Thousands witnessed the launch,
which was not entirely successful, the
ways spreading just as the vessel took
the water. She was quickly floated off
however. After the launch a select
party was invited to lunch on board
the ship, and the Mayor (Hon. G-. W.
Allan.) presented Mr. Hayee wiith a set
of colours on behalf of the Council, as
a publio testimony for the firm s enter
prise in originating a new branch of
industry o:ean ship-building.
The following are extracts from offi
cial minutes of the City Council 6f the
Corporation of the City of Toronto, con
cerning the presentation of colours to
the steamer City of Toronto:
"Monday, April 2nd, 1855. Aid. Smith,
seconded by Councillor McConkey,
moves thfeut it fbe resolved that this
Council, highly appreciating the enter
prise and public spirit of our respected
townsman, M. P. Bayies, Esq., evinced
in his construction, of the splendid ship
now ready to be launched in this /har
bour, being the first ever built here
for ocean navigation, do present him
with a complete set of colours for the
sa ( id ship, and that the 21st rule of
this Council and the order of the day
be dispensed with so far as relates to
this motion, which was ordered.
"Aid. Smith, seconded b Aid. Good,
moves that it be resolved that a select
committee be appointed to purchase
the colours authorized by the forego
ing resolution ; that the said commit
tee be requested to use their influ
ence with M. P. Hayes, Esq., to have
the ship na,med The City of Toronto,
a.nd that such committee do consist of
His Worship the Mayor, Aid. Carr,
Romain, Dunn and the mover, which
wa$ ordered."
"Monday, May 14th, 1855. Aid. Carr,
seconded by Councillor McConkey,
move s that it be resolved that the
Chajmberlain be authorized to pay the
a^nount of tie account of Mr. Robertson
for colours furnished for the ship
City of Toronto, as per resolution of
this Council, which was ordered."
Owing to a difficulty in obtaining
part of her equipment, it was not un
til the beginning of August that the
ship left Toronto. Messrs. Hayes Bros.
had built another sea-going vessel, the
barque Reindeer, at Coldwater. The
Reindeer and the City of Toronto were
both intended for sale in the British
market. They Left Toronto in cpmpany,
with cargoes of wakiut. The City of
Toronto, the larger vessel, having taken
ais much cargo aboard as the depth of
the St. Lawrence canals would admit,
completed loading at Quebec. She was
to have been, taken out by Gaptain Kidd,
a veteran salt-water captain, but ow
ing to some failure in arrangements,
a Captain Clark took command of her.
Besides her cargo of walnut, the ship
carried several passengers.
The City of Toronto made a record
run from Quebec to Liverpool, cover
ing the distance in a little over two
weeks. She then went into, the timber
trade, for which she was calculated, be
ing fitted with bow and stern ports.
On her second voyage, in the fall of
j 1856, when returning to Quebec for an-
! other cargo of timber, she was wreck-
i ed on the coast of Nova Scotia, and
I the greater part of her crew perished.

CHAPTER LXVIL
SPADINA AVENUE.
The Widest Street in Toronto and Its Early
Resident* A Thoroughfare that Is a Bny
Centre Traversed I>T Thousands.
Spadina Avenue was laid out by the
late Dr. W. W. Baldwin between 1813-
18. The word Spadina is from the In
dian, and signifies a sudden rise of
land, and on that elevation at the head
of the street Dr. Baldwin built about
1820, Spadina House, as the family re
sidence. The original structure was
burned down in 1835.
The street is 160 feet wide and it was
originally a mile and a quarter long,
measuring from the neck or the head
of the original street, where now runs
Bloor street, ending at south end of
street.
At Qfueen street south to the Bay
shore Spadina Avenue is continued as
Brock street, also retaining the width
ot 160 feet.
Queen street at the foot. and
to the east of Spadina is ninety
feet in width to within a few
feet of Beverley street. Tbis increase
in the width of Quieen street from
Spadina east to Beverley, is caused by
t h)a fact that it was so laid out by fir.
Peter Russell, who had the park lot
known as Petersfie Id, where the family
ot the late Mr. Justice McLean re
sidein a house originally built by the
Receiver-General iX Upper Canada,
Hon. J. H. Dunn.
The map of York (Toronto) made June
1797, only shows as far west as Peter
street, and from Queen to the Bay
shore west of Peter were "ten acres
submitted for a college," and about
five acres "submitted as burying
ground." The college was, however,
located one block east between John
and Graves (Simcoe) street, and the
burying ground was not laid out. The
land bounded by John, Peter, King
Hospital (Adelaide) street, was "Rus
sell Square," intended as a recreation
ground for the people.
Gotherman s map or pian of Decem
ber, 1788, gives the plan of Toronto
harbour with the proposed town and
part of the settlement. This shows (p.
385, Vol. I.) how the intention was to
lay out the town west as far as the
site of Fort Rouille, north to what is
now the Davenport road, and east to
the Don.
In 1836-7 the following weri residents
erf Spadina avenue :
Bennett, Adam, joiner.
Baldwin, Hon. Capt. Russell Hill, Spa-
dina. who died aged 90, January 5th,
1866.

No. 186, at the south-west corner of
Spadina avenue and Oxford street was
vacant in 1864, but had been occupied.
Even in 1864 Spadina avenue had but
few residents. On the east side, north
of Queen, was Maple lane, and then
No. 21, a cottage where George Hen
derson, a clerk Ln the custom house, re
sided, and at No. 25, a few doors north,
was the house of Mr. John Phipps,
while at No. 27 resided Henry DolJery,
a fireman on the Northern Railway.
These were the only residents from
Queen to Bloor street, except the
house 1 of Mr. Justice, afterwards Sir
Adam, Wilson, on the north-east cor
ner of Spadina avenue and what is now
Russell street. On the west side, com-
; menacing at the north-west corner of
i Queen, were residences No. 2, and fur-

English mails from Toronto to New
York, and return with the British
! mails. This system was discontinued
over twenty years ago. Joseph Blake-

Between Oxford and College streets
in 1864 there was but one house, No.

of Alfio De Grassi. The land to the
south of the house was vacant, and a
stretch of green fields occupied all the
territory north of College street. The
few cottages observable to the morth-
west, were on the north side of College
street, on a line with the present Hope
street.

THE ST. GEORGE RESERVOIR.
I An Old Landmark A Belle of the Flril
Water-Work* In Operation In Toronto.
At the north-east corner of St. Pat-
: rick and Huron streets, now occupied
by Nos. 94 to 96, on the former street
stood in 1864 the St. George s reservoir,
one of the supply stations of the Fur-
! niss Co., that owned the Toronto water
works from 1841 to 1851. Then they
were sold to a joint stock company,
but re-purchased by Mr. Furniss m
1853 and continued until 1858. The sup
ply was for the purpose of serving the
western part of the city.
The structure was built in 1843 of
red brick surmounted by a metal cov
ered top, ornamented by a diminutive
flag staff.

The house to the left was that of
John M. Wftalen, the keeper. The re
servoir was called St. George s from its
proximity to St. George s square, now
Beverley street.
In the directory of 1864-65 the St.
George s reservoir is described as be
ing on the north side of St. Patrick
street, west of Beverley street. It was
actually on the north-east corner of
where now runs Huron and St. Pat
rick streets. The site is now occupied
by private residences. It was one of
the supply stations of the Furniss Com
pany, who owmed the Toronto water
works from 1841 until 1851, when they
were sold to a joint stock company, but
TCHpurchiased by Mr. Furniss in 1853,
who continued to manage the company
from that year until June 10th, 1858,
when* he disposed of it to the Metropo-
litam Gas and Water Company. It was
supposed to serve the whole of the city,
but it was miserably inadequate for the
purpose, and authentic statement was
mode in September, 1858 that "while
we," the City of Toronto, "having near
ly 100 miles of street opened, there
is not now in all more than from 15 to
20 miles of pipe laid, and a great por
tion of that even is comparatively use
less."
The structure was built about 1843
of red brick, surmounted with a flag
staff . Anew rising 1 main was construct-
ei- in 1853 and a powerful engine added,
and further improvements were pro
jected by Mr. Furniss. The reservoir
was abandoned about 1855. In 1875 to
the front were dwelling houses and
shops Nos. 50 to 64 St. Patrick street
and the first house on Huron street,
No. 64, built on the site, was occupied
by James Sheldon, a conductor on the
G. T. R.
CHAPTER LXIX.
AN EAST END HOSTELRY.
A Reminder of the Good Old Times One of
the Many Kingston Koad Taverns Fre
quented by the Sf loneer Settlers.
There is nothing 1 very remarkable
aibout the two-storey red brick build
ing at 1010 Queen street east, occupied,
in this year or grace eighteen hundred
and ninety-seven, by John Gibbs, milk
man. The only thing unusual in the
surroundings of the building is the
fact that there is a well of fresh water
at the western end of it, so that, if
need be, the residents can snap their
fingers at the Toronto water-works
syste-m. And it is this well that is the
sole link between past and present at
; this particular spot on Queen street
east.
Fifty years ago tlhat well amd a
clumsy, home-made jpump, formed part
j of tfoe equipment ot a roadside tavern
yard. The tavern itself was a long,
! low building, always painted a dazzling
white, wit.h( a cottage roof, and greeoi
; shutters an Ms four front windows,
j which, two an either side, f lamked a door,
; also painted green, in tflbie centre.
A few yaros distant Irorn the west-
j ern end of the tavern was a low red
: building, used as a driving shed. Be-
i tween the hotel and shed was the well
! referred to. At the eastern end of the
| hotel, and somewhat to the south of it
j stood two substantial uprights, be-
! tween which hung a heavy wooden
! signboard, explaining to the world at
i large and teamsters in particular, the
j purposes for which the building was
i intended. The hostelry stood about
! fifty feet back from, the roadway, then
called the Kingston road, and now
known as Queen street east. In front
of it were three heavy posts, that the
aforesaid teamsters might there se
cure their horses, while they them-
j selves partook of liquid comfort at the
i bar, "which was at the western extrem
ity of the hostelry, in convenient
proximity to the pump.
The tavern, and much of the land
surrounding it, was owned by a pioneer
settler named Charles Watkins, who
came out from England early in the
thirties. The hotel was built in U835, or
the year previous. Watkins liked farm
ing better than hotel-keeping, and fol
lowed the former pursuit, while he
rented the tavern. The first landlord
was known as Sandy Watson. He kept
hotel there for a dozen years, and
then James Shaw rented the place.
Tavern-keeping in that locality was
then in its palmiest days.
There was an almost continuous
stream of traffic passing by during
the winter, great, comfortable farmers
sleighs bringing in loads of produce to
the rising young city; rough, heavy
wood sleighs, piled high with sweet-
scented pine and rough cordwood; be
sides vehicles conveying passengers and
the mails, for in those days the Kings
ton road was one of the mail routes.
All year round, but particularly during
the winter, the many taverns in this
locality Shaw s was the most easterly
one at this time did a roaring /trade.
Mr. Shaw was very fond of horses, and
it was /one of the sights of the neigh
bourhood to see the black hostler, an
old escaped slave known as "Doc,"
trot out Mr. Shaw s team to water
every morning.
But in 1856 there came a change. Mr.

Watkins, who had amassed considerable
wealth, pold his property and went to
England. James Boulton and Thomas
Sa-ulter bought the hostelry a.t a, #4,000
figure, paying f 1,000 down. James
Sha,w retired from the business, and the
tavern, became known as Smith and
Cook s. Things did not seem to prosper.
The new owners of the property could
not pay for it, and it came back on Mr.
Watkins hands. Messrs. Smith and Cook
became dissatisfied with the locality,
aoid next year they went into the
"Uncle Tom s CJaibin," a new hostelry
near the present corner of Leslie street
and Queen street east. The old tavern
pa,ssed into the hands of John Jobson,
who occupied it for a year or two. It
finally lecame tenant! ess, and was de
stroyed by fire in 1661.
The lot, with its blackened ruins, was
unoccupied then for three or four
years. In 1865 Alderman Russell bought
the hotel site and some of the sur
rounding property for $1,800, and on
it he erected the present two-stoirey
brick building.

38, during the rebellion.
Lieut.-Col. Join Mewburn, command
ing the 6th Lancashire Artillery Vol
unteers, having completed twenty-five
years service in the volunteer force,
is now promoted to the rank of col-
onieil. Col. Mewburn commenced his
career in the Cobourg Rifles in 1837,
the year of the outbreak of the old
Canadian rebellion. In this company,
composed of gentlemen of the pro
vince, Col. Mewburn assisted in the
operations against Navy Island, and
was engaged in the cutting out of the
piratical steamer Caroline on the Ni
agara River. In February, 1838, he
was gazetted junior ensign in the
Queen s Own, one of the regiments
raised for active service, which was
chiefly officered by retired British of
ficers of the line, who at the time had
settled in Canada. Col. Mewburn has
testimonial letters from the late Lord
Seaton, then Sir John Colborne, Com-
mander-in-C-hief of the Forces and Ad
ministrator of the Province; Colonel
Kiagsmill, a Peninsular officer, com
manding the Queen s Own ! Capt. Pur-
dein, also a Peninsular officer, v^ith
whom Colonel Mewburn was ejisiign >
and from Sir Allan Macnab, comman
der on the Niagara frontier. In 1859
Col. Mewburn joined the 5th L. A. V.
as a private, when Col. Crosby was
ensign. Early in 1860 he assisted in
the formation and organization of the
6th (then 15th; L. A. V., and on 1st
April the same year was gazetted as
lieutenant ; 16th June, 1860, captain ;
12th November, 1865, major ; 24th Feb
ruary, 1875, lieutenant-colonel ; and
24th April, 1885, was promoted to the
rank of honorary coloned. Col. Mew-
burn s name stands in the official Army
List among the officers of the English
army with war services, and with the
distinguishing mark of " crosse-l
swords." Col. Mewburn retired Apiil,
1890, with rank and uniform.
On being asked to give a few per
sonal reminiscences of the Canadian
rebellion of 1837-8 on the Niagara
frontier, chiefly during the operations
against Navy Island, Col. Mewburn
said :
On my return home to Stamford, near
Niagara Falls, where my father, Dr.
Mewburn, resided, after an autumn
cruise in a large schooner on Lake Erie
and Lake St. Clair, I joined a company
of militia then passing through . ur
village on its way to join the forces
concentrating nt Toronto, or to hold
Queension He ^ iits against an attack ot
the American sympathizers who were
mustering in large numbers along the
borders of the Niagara river. We were
ordered to remain at Queenston, and
at once, on arrival after dark, I had
my first experience of "Sentry Go" at
the foot of Queenston Heights, below
the monument of General Brock. News
soon reached us of the defeat and de
pression of the rebels under Mackenzie
;it. Montgomery Hill, a few miles from
Toronto. In the course of a day or two
the well known rifle company, the
CobDurg Rifles, a corps formed almost
entirely of young gentlemen of the
place from which it took its name, un
der the command of Captain Warren,
a retired line officer, Lieut. Macdonald,
formerly of a Highland Regiment, and
Ensign Cha.tterton, a, civilian, came up
en route to Firt Erie, and this corps,
by permission of my captain, I was
allowed to join. We marched the same
day to Fort Erie, immediately opposiie
Black Rock, and close to Buffalo, ar
riving late at night, and being warned
thi,t the combined rebel and sym
pathizer forces would cross the river

a,t this narrow part, remained several j
hours under arms. The night wa so
dark tha,t we could see nothing of the
gathering on the other side, but dis
tinctly leard the sounds which attend j
the movements of undisciplined bodies
of men. They did notma:e the attempt
to cross, aiS they were no doubt well
informed by their spies of the position
being occupied by our company. We
were re-inforced in the morning by
some companies of militia* and in one
of these I recognized my brother Tom,
a Ia4 just turned sixteen, standing in
the ranks, the commissariat being then
not properly organized. I well recollect
his look as if he were somewhat suffer
ing from want of a, good meaL He
served afterwards in a cavalry troop
and was noted for pluck and dash. As
one of the Cbllectors of Customs for
Ontario Thomas C. Mewburn was after
wards well known for energy and
courage. He died in 1892 in his 71st
year.
But to return from this digression.
Winter had set in early, and snow was
already on the ground. We soon ascer
tained that the enemy had marched
down from Buffalo, where they ob
tained large stores of arms and am
munition, to Port Schlosser, about two
and a half miles above the Falls, and
had at once proceeded to occupy Navy
Island. We were ordered to escort a
couple of guns from Fort Erie to Chip-
pewa. A trying march it was, a dark
night, and the rain coming down in
torrents, so that we struggled through
deep melting snow, drenched to the
skin, having some little experience of
the discomforts of soldiering. Our bil
let was a roomy Methodist chapel, of
which the interior was occupied by
moveable seats with backs, so that with
judicious arrangement the floor was
divided into capital sleeping berths.
holding four or five men, and a good
supply of straw made us comfortable
enough. In the centre was ;i large
stove. The pulpit was utilized for our
stores. Aftd as to the table, having
some keen whist players amongst us, I
leave the use made of it to the im
agination of my readers. The rebels
lost no time in throwing up works of
logs and earth, cutting down small
trees and branches, and forming in
front of these works a regular cheval
de frise, on which field guns stolen
from American arsenals were soon
mounted. A continued flow of recruits
from the rebels friends set in, chiefly
composed of frontier loafers of all kinds
and sorts, many of them no doubt ard
ent enthusiasts in the cause of free
dom. On our part we were not idle.
Volunteer companies and militia regi
ments soon reinforced us from all quar
ters. Early in the autumn all the re
gular troops had been sent down to Sir
John Colborne (Lord Seaton), in the
Lower Province, fighting at St. Denis,
St. Charles and St. Eustace, to put
down the French habitants. A mile or
so above Navy Island a flotilla was
formed of schooners, scows, boats, etc.,
brought down from the small harbours
on the Canadian side of Lake Erie and
the port of Ontario through the Wei-
land canal and down the Chippewa
River, which debouches on the Niagara
just ajbove the Falls. Guns were soon
mounted on the small craft of the flo
tilla and on the batteries on the river
bank facing Navy Island. The enemy
obtained a small steamer called the
Caroline at Buffalo, and in her con
veyed men. guns and stores to Navy
Island. Colonel Allan McNab had then
assumed command of the forces, and
many old line and naval officers had
come to the front from their farms
and residences scattered through the
province. A council of war was held,
and Captain (afterwards Admiral) Drew
was asked if it were possible to destroy
the steamer. An affirmative answer
was given. The same night, Decem
ber 29, 1837, she was cut out from
her moorings and sent burning over the
falls. As one of the party engaged
sixty years ago in this expedition, one
probably of very few survivors, it may
interest some of my readers if I relate
my personal experience in the affair.
That evening, between 9 and 10
o clock a party of officers came* to our
quarters at the chapel to ask for vol
unteers. Being one of the orderlies of
the day, I was busy with mess work.
The chance of a "cutting out" expe
dition for a youth airtxious to see ser
vice was one not to be lost. I vol
unteered, of course. Outl asses with
beckets -were served out to us, and we
wesre. marched, down to boats lying
ready at the bank otf the little canal
leading to the Niagara River, just
above the Rapids. Seven boats, with
ten mien or a dozen each, formed the
party. Captain Drew informed us in a
few words of the object of the expe
dition, strongly enforcing strict si
lence and obedience. The boats were
towed through the canal and them the
punters cast off; we befean to pull
across the swift current of the Nia
gara between the lower front of Navy
Island and the foaming rapids. At one
moment the impression prevailed that
we were drifting towards the Falls.
Captain Drew says in his report that
3)4

his anxiety for the( fate of the expe
dition was extreme, until he saw that
we were holding our own against the
stream (running seven or eight knots
an hour) and gradually nearing the
other side. I was double manning the
bow oar, and until we rested under
the lee of a spit of land in front of
the wharf at which the steamer was
moored fore and aft, did not teel at
all anxious, as Captain Drew says in
his report the roar of the cataract was
certainly awful, and during the sus
pense one felt somewhat toned down."
As we pulled round t he point the sentry
on the steamer challenged, "Boat,
ahoy I Who comes theore ?" and then
bang went his rifle. Two boats stood
clear as reserve, two took the star
board quarter gangway, and the boat
was in, the starboard bow. Tlwo of our
boats I must notice pulled up
the river and engaged the attention
of "the Navy Island upper point bat
teries. There was what may be called
a scrimmage, a few minutes before the
suprised defenders were flriven on to
the wharf, retreating to a warehouse
where we understood a large force of
recruits for Navy Island, were passing
the niight. A few of our men were
placed on the wharf, while otherewere
engaged in setting the steamer on fire,
and cutting her moorings. In the lat
ter duty I was engaged. Her aft moor
ings were a warp; her bow a chain
cable. Capt. Drew makes a singular
mistake in saying that the chain cable
was made fast to a pillar of the wharf,
below the water, which was frozen over,
and that in order to get at it, a vol
unteer, a young Irish gentleman, stood.
on the ice and broke it with the end
of an oar, so as to geit ait the cable.
This little incident is, I don t hesitate
to say, purely imagination on the part
of the gallant captain s informer. I
happened to be one of those who un
fastened the chain, which was above
the water. The steamer had been moor
ed during the evaning, and the frost,
though severe, had not time to pro
duce the effect described, but in fact
the cable was above, not below the
water. I only mention this little cir
cumstance to show how commanders of
affairs carried on at night, are depend
ent upon information of details which
have not come under thier personal
notice. In a very short time all was! clear,
and we had lowered her into the cur
rent, she was enveloped in flames.
Singularly enough, instead of at once
taking the American channel and going
over the American Falls, ahe stood
across the river, until about the centre
at the rapids and went over the Can
adian or Horse Shoe Falls. No time
was lost in re-crossing the river, hug
ging as close as we dared the lower
point of the island, so as to keep a good
distance from the dreaded rapids. On
landing we received the congratula
tions of our comrades, and to use a nau
tical phrase, after "the main brace had
been spliced," turned into our straw
beds and were given an extra allowance
of sleep. The "Cutting out of the
Caroline" had a depressing effect on
the sympathizers. The Navy Islanders
still maintained their position, but did
not receive so much support as before
from the mainland. In the meantime
our little flotilla was rapidly getting
organized. A large fore and aft
schooner was armed with an 18 pound
aft and a small 9 pound mid
ship gun (compared to our pre
sent guns, ours of those now
far off days were but mere pop-guns),
and to this man-of-war schooner the
Cobourg Rifles were transferred, to act
as gunners, marines and boat s crews.
This vessel was commanded by Hon.
John Elmslie, and to his "four-oared
gig" I, with four others, was appoint
ed. We were engaged carrying de
spatches to and from headquarters at
Chippewa, and, with other boats, in
night patrolling the river above the
Island, as an attack in force was ex-
pe t id It om Buffalo. A day or two after
coming on board, the schooner dropped
down thie river and anchored opposite
the upper point log and earthwork bat
tery, and with our 18 pound stern gun
plunged shlot after shot into it. Their
shots ricocheted to the right and left of
us, but they (never got the range. We
i were fortunate in having an old "man-
of-war s man," who in his early days
! fought at Copenhagen, as the "layer"
of our gun. This was my first ser
vice as a marine artillery man. I stood
by to man the "bowing tackle." 1 dis
tinctly remember the excitement; a
well directed shot from the battery
could have raked us and swept away
half the gun detachment, and then no
doubt this excitement would have as
sumed a different aspect. We returned
to our anchiorage higher up the river,
1 and the following day the Lieut-Gov-
! ernor, Sir Francis Bond Head, came on
I board. We brqughtt him, on shore in
the captain s gig; he spoke very cheer
ily to us, and ga,vie us to understand
tlSat the Cobourg Rifles would have
the honour of leading the advance ID
, boats in the .attack on the Island. The
! plan was prepared and the boats and
scows all told off. The attempt was
to be made before daylight next morn
ing, and I can never forget that night
of waiting for the signial to look out
for the boats coming ouMfcf to take off

the men, many of the thoughtful fel
lows amongst Us fully realizing the
difficulties of landing and the cer- |
tainty of severe loss of life in the
event of a stubborn resistance. About ;
midnighit the captain received a de-
.spatch from Col. M oNabb that on the i
strong recommandation of the Lieuten
ant-Governor a council of war had
just decided to cancel the order for the
attack, on aqoount of this great loss
of Iff 3 which it would involve, and that
the operations would be confined to a I
bombardment of the earth works fac- |
ing the Canadian shore, and cutting j
off their supplies from the opposite or i
American shore. Great disappoint- |
mteivt was expressed by all our men,
including even those who had been any
thing but sanguine as to the result ot
the attempt. With one little incident
I wall bake leave c*f ray Navy Island
experience. The gig with three of
ficers and the coxswain in the stern
sheets was on its way from the schooner
to headquarters. We had to run the
gauntiet of the batteries facing our
store, the distance between the Island
and the bank being about 500 yards.
"We expected to pass these batteries
with the strong current at a speed
which woul d rendef it very unlikely
they woul d have a chance of hittinjg
us. It was, however, blowing a stiff -
ish gale again|3t the curren|t, so that
we did not start down stream so rap
idly as we expected. The enemy
opened fire, shof after shot flying over !
the boat as we passed the Una of bat-
tferies. i pulled the oar nexit to the j
stroke; one shot came between us, close j
to thie psak of miy cap a shade nearer
and I sliould certainly not now be
{writing these reminiscences. Ensign
Chatter ton was one of the officers
in the boat", if still alive he
well remembers the incident, for
some five-ami - twenty or thirty
years afterwards he called on. me in
Liverpool and spoke about it, as we
talked over our early days before Navy
Island. We had many stirring events
in the stream on board the schooner
the one in which I made my cruise on
Lake Erie before joining the Cobourg
Rifles^-and on shore patrolling or
escorting guns and doing work of vari
ous descriptions, but must now bring
this personal narrative to a close. The |
Island was vacated and on the Cobourgs
being 1 disbanded I wag gazetted as
junior ensign in the Queen s Own In
corporated Militia Regiment, raised in
active service and commanded by Col.
Kingsmill, formerly 25th Regiment, an
old Peoiinsular officer. Oapt. Purdon.who
fought at Albuera, Ln Spain, commanded
my company. The rank and fUe of the
regiment were splendid men, chiefly
from the Glengarry district. Captain
Moody, who v/as wounded and fell in
the ditch at the attack on Bergen of
Zoon in 1813, was one of our officersV
Long ere this he must have joined the
grea,t majority. Our field officers and
all the captains of companies were men
who had seen service either in Europe
or in Canada, during the war of 1812-
13-14. The junior commissions were
given to young gentlemen of the pro
vince. My old friend Finlaison, who was
with me in the Cobourg Rifles and a,t
the cutting out of the Caroline, was
also with me 1 in the Queen s Own. He
was ally s a few years ago, and is, I
hope, still in the land of the living.

A VIEW IN THE DAYS OF 1836-
North Side of King St. from the N.E. Corner
of Toronto St. to St. .James C nthrdrNl.
This landmark is taken about 1836,
aJnd represents the north side of King
street, from the north-east corner of
Yonge and King, to the north-east co-
ner of King and Church streets, where
stands St. James Cathedral. The
building to the left of the picture at
the corner of Toronto street, is the jail,
which stood Ln, off the King street line
aibout sixty feet, but about 40 feet from
the street line of Toronto street. The
front of this building was exposed for
the first time in seventy years for it
was built in 1826 when the RidR,
Lewis building, on the corner of Toron
to! aSxd King streets, was torn down to
make way for the r&d brick structure
now on t hat site. A portion of the front
showing the windows of the building,
may yet be seen from the rear of Wal
ton s barber shop, a few doors east of
the corner. The scaffold upon which
the patriots, Lount and Matthews suf
fered, was erected, in the centre of the
ground m front of the building. The
building in the rear centre, with a (cup
ola, was the firehall on Church street.
It stood directly south of old St. An
drew s church. The building to the
right, similar in architecture to the
jail, was the Court House. There were
apparently two entrances to this build
ing, one from Church street, and the
other from King street. The picture
shows a King street entrance, but. the
entrance since 1841 60 has been on
Church street. The massive building
with the short tower was St. James
Cathedral, which was burned in J839.
The original drawing of this picture
was made by a Mr. Young, a Toronto
architect of considerable repute.

CHAPTER LXXII.
PARLIAMENT HOUSES SINCE 1792.
The Meeting Places ! the Parliament of
Cppnr Canada at Niagara, 179*-5 At
York, 1796-1813 and 1818-24. 1835-28,
The first Legislature or Parliament i
of Upper Canada met on the 17th Sep- !
tember, 1792, at Niagara. There is no I
certainty as to the building in which j
this body of men assembled, but it was j
probably in Navy Hall, the residence j
of Governor Simcoe. Some think that I
it met in the Freemason s Hall, a build- \
ing at the east end of the town near i
the river, and this is not improbable.
The Freemason s Hall was convenient
to Navy Ball, and it contained two
rooms of reasonable size for such pur
poses. The lower room was for public
meetings, such as those of the Agricul
tural Society, and the upper rooms
were occupied by the Craft of Masons.
This was from 1792-1796.
In June of 1796 the Legislature met
in York. The meeting place was in the
Parliament Buildings, which stood on
the south side of Palace (Front)
street, between the street and the bay,
and on the site of the old jail, now the
Toronto gas works. These buildings
were destroyed by fire on the 27th
April, 1813.
It is stated in Dr. Scadding s book
on "Toronto of Old" that the first
Houses of the Legislature were
"humble but commodious struct .ires of
wood, built before the close of the
eighteenth century." In Vol. I., page
352 of "The Landmarks of Toronto"
this statement is repeated, and an ex
tract from an old guide book is given,
which states that these buildings "were
of wood." An examination of docu
mentary evidence, however, proves
that the buildings were of brick and
not of wood.
We have the exact location of these
buildings and a small drawing of the
front, looking towards the west, in a
picture of the east end of the harbour
and town, made in 1803 by an English
officer. The buildings were on the site
of the preseint gas works, and the ele
vation of the buildings as given in
modern reproductions is accurate, but
the description i inaccurate, in that
the buildings were not of wood, but
of brick. Heriot, in his " Travels in
Canada in 1806," published in 1807,
states that he visited " York, or To
ronto, the seat of Government in Upper
Canada." He then describes Gibraltar
Point, now Hanlan s Point, and refers
to the Garrison and the house in which

the Lieutenant-Governor lived. With
regard to the Parliament Buildings he
wrote: "Two buildings of brick at the
eastern extremity of the town, which
were designed as wings to a centre,
axe occupied as chambers for the Upper
and Lower Houses of Assembly."
Such evidence admits of no contro
versy. Then, as late as 1819, Peter
Robinson and Grant Powell, who were
"managers of public buildings," re
ported to the Legislature concerning
the erection of two new buildings,
stating that " they proceeded without
delay to close with the lowest propos
als for such a building, together with
the old brick buildings repaired," and
that some progress had already been
made " in the repairs of the old build
ings."
This should settle all doubts as to
the question of brick or wood in the
original buildings. The Upper Canada
Gazette of July, 1794, contained an ad
vertisement which read: Wanted,
carpenters for the public buildings to
be erected at Yotrk," but this does not
indicate, as some would have it, that
the buddings were of wood.
TDae statement that the first home
of tiie Legislature was of brick having
been sustained, tihe assertion that the
first brick building m York was tihat
of titoe Canada Compaoiy, on the north
east cornea: of King and Frederick
streets, us disposed of. It was the se
cond brick building in York.
After the fixe the Legislature met
in 1814, at Jordan s Hotel on King
street east. One session was beld in
Jordan s, and for several years a rough
cast, commodious cottage building on
the noxth-east corner of Wellington and
York streets, served as a legislative
home. It was the residence of the Hon.
George Markland, and afterwards that
of the late Chief Justice Draper.
In 1818, new buildings, also of brick,
were erected, immediately adjoining the
exact site of those destroyed in 1813,
at the east end, of the city at the foot
of Berkeley street. The site is now
occupied by the Gas works. These
buildings were two in number, two
storeys in heilght, and are showing in
a painting of York, in 1819-20. The
north* buildiinig was used for Govern
ment offices, the south building as the
Legislative Chambers. H?his latter
was destroyed by fire on the 20th De
cember, 1824.
The sessions of 1825-8 were held 5m
the Toronto General Hospital build
ing, on the north-west corner of King
and John streets, a site now occupied
by the rear part of the Arlington hotel,
street. Tine hospital building
was required for its original purpose in
1828, and the Court-house on Church
street, near the north-west corner of
King and Church streets, was occupied
LQ. lo^cf QJW.
In 1832-41 tjiie buildiogs on Front
street, between Johm and Peter
streets, were occupied by the Legislar-
tu.re. From 1841 to 1849 the buildings
were utilized for university purposes;
in 1848-9 as an asykrai for tbe insane,
and ito 1849-51 the Houise was again
re-opened for the sessions of ParHa-
ment for the united provinces. From
1856-59 the sessions of the TJtnited Par
liament were held in the building, and
in 1861-66 it was used as a military
barracks, and from 1867-92 by the
LegLslaitnitre of Ontario, when removal
wai^ made to the buildings in the
Queen s Park.

ately connected with the history of
Canada m general and of the province
of Ontario in particular, floor plans
have been made by Mr. S. G. Curry,
architect, of Toronto, and, having a
thorough acquaintance with the build
ings at that period, a key has been
prepared, showing by whom the rooms
were occupied from 1856-59. This key
has been verified by Mr. McGillivray
and Mr.W. C. Bowles, the only two offi
cials alive in 1897, who worked in the
Houses of Parliament at Toronto and
the Hospital plan by Mr. H. J. Morgan,
of Ottawa, who was an officer of the
GoverTjonent as early as 1857.

THE ST. LAWRENCE HALL.
A C itj Building thai It a* IJreii (ho Scene of
Notable EveBU met king f Those who
Have (sung and Spoken In the Old Hall.
The St. Lawrence Hall was built in
1850 and 1851, after the great fire of
April 7th, 1849, which had destroyed
the north side of King street, from
the Cathedral of St. James east to
Nelson (Jarvis) street. The old Town
Hall, or Market House, which was built
of red brick, and which stood on this
site, fronting the Market, was also
partially destroyed by fire in 1849.
The new buildings were erected by
the corporation and by private individ
uals. The centre buildin g is the pro
perty of the corporation, while the two
wings to the east and west of the Ar
cade and hall entrance are private pro
perty.
A description of this building, pub
lished in 1851, isays :
"This magnificent building was erect
ed in 1850 to mjeet the pressing exi
gencies of the citizens. The hall is
appropriated for meetings and public
exhibitions, and is capable of accom
modating a thousand persons. The
principal object of the talented design
er of this edifice, W. Thomas, Esq.,
was to ensure its complete usefulness
as well as ornamentality, for, while the
hall is used for public purposes, in its
rear runs the St. Lawrence Market, a.
range of arcade 200 feet in length by
39 feet in breadth, with neat stores on
each side, at the end of which is an
other frontage, south, consisting of
general stores. The iKing street front
age of the St. Lawrence Hall is 140 feet
in extent. The entraaoe to St. Law-

centre of the frontage, by a noble
archway, forming a line of shops on
each side and a transverse piazza 100

first floor, public rooms. On the upper

pannelled centre and emblematical en-

staircase is under the gallery at the
north end, with a saloon, etc. The
finishing of the interior is in good
three-quarter columns, with sculptured
tympanum of the pediment, surmount

throughout the enrichments is of a
rich and varied character. The cupola

these buildings was a trifling sum
above 7,000."
No public ceremony took place when
the St. Lawrence Hall was completed
and ready for use. The first time it
was occupied was when George Thomp
son, M.P., of England, lectured there
in on April 1st, 1851, taking as his sub
ject "Slavery;" the Rev. Dr. Willis pre
sided. He lectured again in the same
place on April 4th, and 5th, on India.
Frederick Douglas, the noted colour
ed abolitionist, lectured on the same
subject, referring more particularly to
American slavery, on the evenings of
April 2nd and 3rd, to moderately sized
audiences. Mr. Thompson delivered the
final lecture on the subject on April
9th.
The Mechanics Institute held its an
nual soiree at the hall on Friday, April
18th. Professor Croft presided over a

ciety s ball took place and proved most

brated by a concert given by Mr. Prin
cipal Barron and some of the pupils
from Upper Canada College, on the
evening of May 23rd, in St. Lawrence
Hall. A dance followed the concert,
and as the clock struck twelve and
May 24th broke, a curtain at the north
end of the hall AVUS drawn on one side
displaying a transparency of " God
Save the Queen," over it an illuminated
crown and the letter V. R. At the
same moment Mr. Barron led off with
the first words of the national anthem,
which was heartily joined, in by the
whole of the company.
Under the patronage of the Ladies
Anti-Slavery Society a concert took

The Anti-Clergy Reserve Associa
tion called a public meeting for July
8th, at which the Hon. Adam Fergu
son presided. The object of the gath
ering was to denounce the Reserves and
to demand their unconditional with
drawal. When the meeting was called
to order by the chairman it was found
that the people were by no means
unanimous and that there were quite
as many supporters of the Reserves
present as there were opponents. The
result was that an amendment to the
first resolution, which called for the
abolition of the Reserves, was carried,
and the meeting broke up in great con
fusion.
On July 15th and 16th the hall was
engaged by the Rev. Morris J. Raph

concert in the hall on July 17th, of

period spoke favourably.
The Anti-Clergy Reserve Associa
tion held another meeting on July
23rd, which caused even greater tumult
than the first. No one was allowed to
speak at this meeting excepting in
favour of the object for which it had
been called, consequently, inside the
hall it was orderly enough. Outside,
though, the case was different. There
the opponents gathered in force, held
a counter demonstration, and eventu
ally became involved in a quarrel and
blows with those who were leaving the
ball. The Riot Act was read and the
troops sent for, but by the time they
arrived all was quiet. No one was seri
ously injured and the whole affair was
soon forgotten.
The Aztec Lilliputians, Maxima and
Bartola were on exhibition at the hall
from August 4th to 9th, and were
visited by large numbers of people.

night of Wednesday, October 15th,

guests to the number of about four
hundred Avere present, including the
Governor-General, Honorables F. Hincks
and J. Ross.
Just a week later, o*n Tuesday, Oc
tober 21st, Jenny Lind, " the Swedish
nightingale," gave the first of her two
concerts in Toronto to a crowded as
semblage, " numbering," to quote a
Toronto paper of the time, " perhaps
about a thousand." If there were so
many present it is rather difficult to
see where they were accommodated,
even with the additional room afford
ed by the gallery. This, though, is cer
tain, that every possible inch of space
was made available, and that scores of
people were disappointed in obtaining
tickets, none of which were disposed
of for less than three dollars each.
The concert was repeated on October
22nd.
Tuesday, December 27th, 1851, also
saw ?. large gathering in the hall,
about three hundred in all, when a

ment, on account of its object, which

dent of the gathering was Mrs. Arnold,
and the secretaries Mrs. Henning and
the well-known Miss Maca,uJay. "Cof
fee and other refreshments were serv
ed from r i to 8 o clock in the supper
room, and during this time the splen
did band of the 71st Regiment played

James Leslie^, of the Examiner news
paper; Captain Hon. Aemilus Irving,
Ezekiel F. Whitemore, Thomas G. Rid-
out, J. P. De La Have, Charles Lind-
sey and about 150 others. This
gathering was one of very great im

sidered a-t the time. Its proceedings
occupy no less than eight columns of
newspaper space.

annual meeting of the Anti-Slavery
Society, held in the hall on the after

from country residents as from Toron
to people.
September 17th was the date when
the hall was well filled, under the
presidency of Hon. J. H. Price, to de
mand that a more stringent Sabbath
observance statute should be passed.
What was described as a " Scottish
Musical Entertainment," under the
direction of Mr. Clireh-ujgh, was held
in the hall on the evening of October
18th. It proved a decided success. T\vo
days later, on October 20th> a Masonic
ball, under the patronage of the vari
ous city lodges, was also held in the
same place, and was very largely at
tended.
A noteworthy meeting was also held
in one of the rooms adjoining the
hall on October 20th. It had been in
tended to hold it in the hall, but
owing to the fact of the ball it was
held in an adjoining apartment. This
meeting, presided over by the Mayor,
was for the purpose of raising
funds for a memorial in Toronto
to the memory of the Duke of
Wellington then recently deceas
ed. A resolution of condolence

do something. Nothing was ever
done.

ST. JAMES CATHEDRAL.

Inl Berunls.
The history of the Cathedral Church
of St. James commences with the year
1803, for then the movement originated
to erect a church for the Episcopalians
resident in the little town of York.
The first regular religious services, of
which there are any records, were held
in the Parliament Buildings at the
foot of Berkelej r street, south of Palace
(Front) street, when the Rev. Dr.
Addison, of Niagara, frequently preach
ed. Prior to the appointment of the
Rev. George O Kill Stuart, or in his
absence, a layman, Mr. William Cooper,
a wharfinger, used to read the service.
An early notice of religious services
is in the Upper Canada Gazette and
Oracle of 9th March, 1799. A day of
general thanksgiving had been order
ed, and the newspaper notice reads :
" Notice is hereby given that prayers
will be read in the North Government
Building in this Town, on Tuesday,
the 12th instant, being the day appoint
ed for a General Thanksgiving
throughout the Province to Almighty
God for the late important victories
over the enemies of Great Britain, ser-

vice to begin half after eleven o clock."
The north Government building was
one of the two brick buildings at the
foot of Berkeley street, used by the
Legislature and officers of the Gov
ernment.
In the year 1797, President Peter
Russell granted a lot of six acres bound
ed by New, now Jarvis, King, Church
and Adelaide streets, was set apart as
a church plot. In the map, the south
east corner of this was marked for the
"parson." This kind was then
covered with a dense forest of pine
trees. On the 8th of January, 1803, a
meeting of the male attendants at the
Anglican services was held for the pur
pose of raising funds to erect a church.
The proceedings at this meeting are
thus given in the Upper Canada Gaz
ette of January 22 :
" At a meeting of the subscribers to
a fund for erecting a church in the
town of York, hoLden at the Govern
ment Buildings on Saturday, the 8th
day of January, instant, the Hon. Chief
Justce Elmsley in the chair, resolved
unanimously : That each subscriber
shall pay the amount of his subscrip
tion by three instalments, the first
being one moiety in one month from
this day; the second being a moiety
of the residue in two 1 months, and the
remainder in three months; that Mr.
William Allan and Mr. Duncan Cam
eron shall be treasurers, and shall re

severally answerable for all moneys
paid into their hand upon the receipt
of either of them; that his Honour the

the Rev. Mr. Stuart, Dr. Macaulay, Mr.
Chewett and the two treasurers, be a

moneys arising from subscriptions to
the purpose contemplated; provided,
nevertheless, that if any material dif-

In the Gazette of June 4, of thte same
year, appears the following advertise

Cameron,, W. Allan. Tork, Jume 1,
1803.
It was at first determined to build the
church of stone, and the Gazette of July
9, says: " On Wednesday last, the 6th
instaint, a meeting of tlhe subscribers
to the fund for erectiag a church in
this towm Was held at the Governimjemi,
Tuildings, on wihich occasion it was

The church, as first erected, was j

yards bads from tihe road. Its gables
faced east and west, its solitary door
was at its western end, and approadhed
from Church street. * Its diimeinsioins
weire fifty by forty feet. Ttas sides of

ot ordinary windows, four aboye and
four below. Altogeitiher it was in its (
outward appearance as a contemporary
American " Georgaphical View of the
Province of Upper Canada" describes
it, simply " a meeting house for Fr>is-

tratiKm, from a sketch takeia early in <

repreeemted as being in tihe madst at a

The pew holders in St. James from
1803 were as follows : President Peter
Russell, Judges Cochrane and Boulton,
Solicitor -General Gray, Receiver-Gen
eral Prideaux Selby, Christopher Robin
son. George Ciookshank, William
Che-wett, J. B. Robinson, Alexander

Ketch um, Wm. Cooper, J. Ross, John
Jordan. J. Kendrick, Joseph Hunt,
John. EEggins, Mr. Anderson, Mr.
Murchison, Mr. Bright, Mr. O Keefe and
Ca,le,b Humphrey. The churchwardens
for 1807-8 were D Arcy Boulton and
William Allan. The. first incumbent of
the church was the Rev. George O Kill
Stuart, sulTsequently of St. George s,
Kingston. Occasionally was to be heard
Charles James, the second Bishop of
Quebec, long a missionary in the east
ern townships of Lower Canada before
his appointment to the Episcopate.
Other very early pew holders were
Donald McLean, William Hamilton,
Allan McNabb, Joshua Leach, T. Bingle,
John Beikie, George Duggan, Alexan
der Legge and John Scarlett.
Though the church originated in 1803,
it does not appear to have been opened
for divine service until early in 1807.
On February 28th, 1807, appears an
advertisement in the Gazette notifying
that the pews would be offered for sale
by public auction on March 4th follow
ing, and that when sold they would be
subject to a ground rent of two dollars
per annum for a single Pw and four
for a double one. The first accounts
show that from March 4th, 1807, until
March 4th, 1808, the sum received for
rents was "36 4s. Cd, Halifax cur
rency," about 145.
In 1810 a, portion of the church plot
was enclosed a,t an expense of 1 5s.
for ra.ils, of which five hundred were
required for the purpose. At the same
tune the ground in front of the west
end entrance was cleared of stumps at
a.n expense of 3 15s. In tha same year
the cost for heating the building and
the charges connected with the Holy
Communion amounted to 1 7s. 6d.,
Halifax currency. In 1811 Dr. Strachan
succeeded Dr. Stuart as incumbent of
(hft church, and in 1818 he induced the
congregation to effect some alterations
an i additions in the structure.
Dr. Scadding, in his " Toronto of
Old," thus describes the first Episcopal
clergyman of York :
" Dr. O Kill Stuart, formerly rector
j of this church, i.e., York, but subse-
! quently of Kingston, used occasionally
! when visiting York to officiate a very
j tall, benevolent and fine-featured
i ecclesiastic, with, a curious delivery,
characterized by unexpected elevations
and deprevssions of the voice, irrespec
tive of the matter, accompanied by
long- closings of the eyes, and then a
sudden re-opening of the same. Wheto-
i ever this preacher ascended the pul-
I pit, one member of the congregation,
j Mr. George Duggan, who had had, it
i was understood, some trivial disagree-
i ment with the doctor during his in-
i cuooibency in former years, was always
i expected by onlookers to rise and walk
; out, and this he accordingly always did.
! The movement seemed a regular part
of the programme of the _day, and
never occasioned any sensation."
Another curiosity among the old
i records Ls the entry of tne payment of
I 3 7s. 9d., Halifax currency, on April
! 4th, 1809, to Joshua Leach as paxt pay-
| ment for the erection of the pulpit.
I What the total cost was is not given.
John Hayes was appointed sexton of
the church at a yearly salary of 10,
, or $40, on January 20th, 1813, and
among h s duties was "digging the
; graces, attending upon the door of th
; dhuich a,t a,U times during divine ser-
vice and to keep out dogs." A memo.

is inserted thit he might charge $2
for digging a, gra.ve.
Another item in the early a,ccounls
Is t!he receipt of 24 as pew rent for
(lie two pews set apart for the use of
the House of Assembly. It is dated 1811
On March 18th, 1813, it was resolved
at a meeting of the congregation that
the burial ground should be fenced
when the wardens ha,ve the money."
The first record relating to the musi
cal portion of the church services is
dated Easter Monday, 1819, when it was
resolved to pay Mr. Hefherington the
sum of 20 annua,Uy for singing. From
subsequent entries it would seem that
this gentleman was the choir master.
To return to the proposed alterations
in the church. The first proposal was
to extend the building eastward, not
southward ; to have the belfry placed
at the we&t end, not at the south >
then the pulpit was to have been placed
on the north side of the church and a
south porch erected. An advertisement
in the Gazette, of the early part of
1818, reads: "Plans and estimates for
enlarging and repairing the church will
be received by the subscribers before
the 20th of March, on which day a de
cision will be ma4e, and the contractor,
whose proposals shall be approved of,
must commence tie work as the season
will permit. The intention is, first, to
lengthen the church forty feet towa,rd
tie east with a, circular end, thirty of
which to form part of the body of the
church, a,nd the remaining ten an altar
with a small vestry room on. the one
side, ajid a, Government pew on the
other ; second, to remove the pul
pit to the north side, and to erect two
galleries, one opposite to it and an
other on the west end; third, to alter
the pews to suit the situation of the
pulpit, and to paint and number the
same throughout the church ; fourth,
to raise a belfry on the west end, and
make a handsome entrance on the
south side of the church, and to paint
the whole building on the outside.
Thomas Ridout, J. B Robinson, church-
v.ardens; William Allan. Feb. 18, 1818."
The intentions here detailed were not
carried into effect. On the north and
south sides of the old building addi
tional space was enclosed, which
brought the axis of the church and
its roof into a north and south direc
tion. An entrance was opened at the
southern end, toward King street, and
over the gable in this direction was
built a square tower, bearing a circu
lar bell turret, surmounted by a small
tin-covered spire. The whole edifice,
as thus enlarged and improved, was
painted of a light blue colour, with
the exception of the frames around
the windo.vs and doors and tue casings
at the angles, imitating blocks of stone
alternately long and short, v, hichwere
painted white. The original v.estern
door was not closed up. It was sed al
most exclusively on Sundays end other
occasions when Divine worship was
performed, to admit the troops, whose
benches extended along by the wall on
that side the whole length of the
church. The upper windows on all the
four sides were now made circular
headed. On the east side there was a
difference. The altar window of the
original building remained, only trans
formed into a kind of triplet, the cen
tral compartment rising above the
other two and made circular-headed.
On the north and south side of this
east window were two tiers of lights,
as on the western side. In the bell
turret was a bell of sufficient weight
to jar sensibly the whole building at
every one of its semi-revolutions. In
the interior a central aisle or open
passage led from, the door to the south
ern end of the church, while on the
floor was situated a pw of state for
the Lieutenant-Governor, with small,
square pillars at its four corners, sus
taining a fiat canopy over it. Immedi
ately utfder the ceiling of the gallery,
and below the distinctive covering just
mentioned, suspended aigainst the Avail,
were the Royal Arms emblazoned on
a black tablet. Half way up the central
aisle.on the right side.was an open space,
in whicn were placed the pulpit, read
ing desk and clerk s pew, in the old
orthodox fashion, rising by jgradations
one above the other, the whole over
shadowed by a rather handsome
sounding board, sustained partially by
a rod from the roof. Behind this
mountainous structure was the altar
lighted copiously by the original east
window. Two narrow side-aisles run
ning parrjlel with the central one gave
acccess to corresponding rows of pews,
each having a nr-imeral painted on it
door. Two passages for the same pur
pose ran westward frt>m the space in
front of the pulpit. To the right and
left of the. Lieutenant-Governor s seat,
and filling uip with the exception of
two square-corner pews the rest of
the northern end of the church were
two oblong pews; the. one on the west
j appropriated to the officer of the
I garrison, the other on the east to the
i members of the Legislature. Round
i the north, west and south sides, of the
interior ran a gallery divided like the
area below into pews. This structure
was sustain** top a row of pillars of

turned wood, and from it to the root
above rase, another row of similar sup
ports. The ceiling over the parts ex
terior to the gallery was divided into
four shallow semi-circular vaults,
which met at a central point. The
pews everywhere were painted of a buff
or yellowish hue, with, the exception
of the rims at the top, which were
black. The pulpit and its appurten*
ances were white. The rims or cor
nices on the pews just referred to,
throughout the whole church, exhibit
ed at regular intervals small gimlet
holes; in these were inserted annually
at Christmas-tide small sprigs of hem
lock spruce. The. interior, when thus
dressed, wore a cheerful, refreshing
look in keeping with the festival com
memorated.
How the money wa^ obtained for the
(enlargement of the church is told by
the Christian Recorder for 1819. It says
tha-t "a very respectable church was
built at York, in the Borne District,
many years ago, which at that time ac
commodated the inhabitants, but for
some years past it had been found too
small, and several attempts were made
to enlarge and repair it. A t length
in April, 1818, in a meeting ot the
whole congregation, it was resolved to
enlarge the church, and a committee
was appointed to suggest the most ex
peditious and economical method of
doing it. The committee reported that
a subscription in the way of loan,
to be repaid when the seats were sold,
was th most promising method no
subscription to be taken- under twenty-
five pounds, payable in four instal
ments. Two gentlemen were selected
to carry the subscription paper round,
and in three hours from twelve to thir
teen hundred dollars were subscribed.
Almost all the respectable gentlemen
gave in loan fifty pounds, and the
Hon. Justice Bpulton and George
Crookshank, Esq., contributed one
hundred pounds each to accomplish so
good an object. The church was en
larged, a steeple erected, and the
whole building, with its galleries,
handsomely finished. In January last
when everything was completed, the
pewis were sold at a year s credit, and
Drought more money than the repairs
and enlargement cost. Therefore the
inhabitants of York erect a very hand
some church, at a very little expense
to themselves, for every one may have
his subscription money returned, or it
may o-o towards payment of a pew, and,
what is more, the persons who sub
scribed for the first church, count the
amount of their subscription as part
of^ the price of their new pews. This
fair arrangement has been eminently
successful and gave great satisfaction.
George Crookshank, Esq., notwith
standing |he greatness of. his sabacrip-
; tion and the pains which he took in
getting tha church well finished, has
presented the clergyman with cushions
for the pulpit and reading desk cov
ered with the richest and finest dam
ask, and likewise cloth for the com
munion table. Thias pious liberality
i cannot be too much commended; it tells
us that the benevolent zeal of ancient
times is not entirely done away. The
congregation were so much pleased that
I a vote of thanks was unanimously of
fered to Mr. Croofcshank for his muni
ficent present."
PULPIT, SOUNDING BOARD AND DESK, NOW IN
ST. MABOAKET S. SCARBORO , ONT.
The pulpit, sounding board and desk
had been a gift of Governor Gore to the
original church, and had cost the sum
of one hundred dollars. The Hon. John
Henry Dunn provided the Communion
plate, and in tha Loyalist of March 1,
1828, is found the following acknow
ledgment: "The undersigned acknow

be observed the forms of the founders
of York in their (to us) quaint dress

right collars, small clothes and buckled
shoes, frilled shirt bosoms and. white
cravats, with powdered hair and
smoothly shaven faces. Such was the

Besides the appointed clergyman
there were to be heard in the pulpit
and reading desk, from time to time,
the Rev. Joseph Hudson, the military
chaplain at this post; Mr. Addison, of
St. Mark s Church, Niagara, chaplain
of the first Provincial Parliament, who
used to walk to and from, church in his
canonicals, in the old-fashioned way,
recalling the period when the clergy
wore the cassock and gown in the
streets. Mr. Addison presented his
library to the rectory at Niagara,
ways endeavoured to conform to the
old English custom of turning to the
east, but to do this in the desk of the
old church was difficult.
As will be gathered from this his
tory, the first Anglican church of 1803-
1807 was little more than a "meeting
house," constructed of wood, standing
nearly ctn the same site as the present
St. James Cathedral does, but, unlike
that edifice, which runs north and
south, it faced east and west, which,
according to the ideas obtaining among

where it still remains, of interest chief
ly as showing the line of reading of
a. theologian of the last century. The
chaplain to the Legislative Assembly,
the Rev. William Macaulay, was a
preacher always listened to with
attention. Another divine was Dr.
Thomas Phillips, a well-read cleric, in
personal appearance very clerical, in
the old-fashioned sense. He was one of
the last wearers of hair powder in this
vicinity. In reading the creed he al-
Anglicans, Roman Catholics and fol
lowers of the Greek church, is the only
way in which a church should be built.
A cut of the first building is given, as
is also one of what the building was
like after its enlargement in 1818-19
under the direction of the Rev. John
Strachan, the then rector of York, he

Stuart in 1811.

which is surmounted by the royal
arms, was thai of the Lieutenant-Gov
ernor, while the first of the three
large square pews, just underneath
the pulpit, was that se,t apart for mem
bers of the Legislature. When the al
terations were finally completed, the
outer windows had circular heads given
to them, and galleries, which do not
appear to ever have been used much,
were also added.
The benches at the back of the pews
were then used by such of the soldiers
of the garrison as attended the ser
vices of the Anglican church.
This edifice remained in use until
1830, when it was replaced by a stone
building. The pulpit was removed to
St. Margaret s Anglican church in Scar-
boro , where it is still to be seen.

The names of the various parties to
the contract are all f as familiar as
household words" to old iTorcin-
tonians. D Arcy Boulton was son
of Judge Boulton, and resided
at the Grange. His widow afterwards
crave the land upon w r hich the Anglican
church of St. George was built, and of
which church his grandson, the Rev.
J. D Arcy Oayley, Ls now th rector,
while his great grandson, the Rev. Pro
fessor Cayley, is one of the "Dons" at
Trinity University.
Robert Stanton was the Queen s
printer, a man whose- character was
of the highest. William Henry Draper
was the Ghief Justice, His bust in
marble now adorns the- interior of the
building which has succeeded the one
he assisted to build. James Grant Che-
wett was a prominent Government offi
cial in the Surveyor^General s depart
ment, a son of Lieutenant-Colonel Che-
wett, of the 3rd York Militia. His
name, with that of his father, was ap
pended to the address of welcome pre
sented to Lieut.-Governor Gore when
he re-assumed the reins of power in
Upper Canada after the war of 1812.
It is not necessary to say who George
Duggan was, he and his doings are so
well known to every one. Many even
of those of th younger generation can
remember him. If he was somewhat
eccentric, he was exceedingly kind-
hearted, and ha3 left many pleasant
memories.
The next three names, those of John
Ritchey, Jesse Ketchum and Thomas
Silverthorn, are all well known. The
first named erected many of the earlier
buildings in Toronto, and his name is
commemorated by Ritcbey s Terrace on
Adelaide street. Jesse Ketchum was
Jesse Ketchum, a man "sui generis, to
slightly alter the words of. the poet,
" Each, morning saw some task begun,
Each evening saw it done."
Thomas Silverthorn was a prominent
agriculturist, many of whose descend
ants are still in the neighbourhood of
Toronto. H> was an out and out Tory,
and a most uncompromising church
man.
There is little more to add to the
foregoing reminiscences; it is not a
history of the congregation that as
sembled in St. James , and their doings
that is being written, but of the
buildirijr ttaelf, and of those concerned
in erecting it. For rather more than
eight years this, tha second St. JamesV
wa,s iu use whsn the end came.
About 8.30 on January 5th, 1839, a
dense volume of smoke was seen issu
ing from one of the chimneys of the
church. Shortly after the flames burst
through the roof and quickly spread
their devastating ravages throughout
the sacred pile. The rest of the story
will be best told in the following ex
tract from a private letter written at
the time and published in the Pallad
ium, describing the occurrence :
"The appearance was botn awful
I and sublime as the flames caught the
| pillars and the galleries. There were
| but few things saved from the de-
; vouring element, which continued its
i devastating course until it left the bare
! walls a sad and frightful spectacle of
I this grevious calamity.
"All classes of the people vied with
1 ^ach other to assist in saving the edi
fice from destruction, but their lab
ours were unavailing. The number of
i spectators was immense. The miiitia
maintained excellent order by their ad
mirable management in keeping the
: roads open for the supply of water.
j The Joss of the organ was deeply and
i bitterly deplored. The building was
I insured for $30,000."
On this occasion it is said Dr. Strach-
j an, was seen standing by watching the
. destruction o his beloved temple, and
| whistling the while as a means of re-
; lieving his sorrow. Another loss, not
! mentioned by the Palladium, was the
: ; destruction of a very large triplet win-
; dow of stained glass over the altar of
[ the church, containing three life-size
; figures by Mr. Craig, a local, histori
cal and ornamental painter, not well
skilled in the ecclestiastical style. As
home productions these objects were
, tenderly eyed, but Anna Jameson, ac
customed to the cathedrals of Europe,
in her work on Canada, denounced them
; as being "in a vile, tawdry taste."
Dr. Strachan and the people of the
cotagregation, put their shoulders to
the wheel, and at once began the con
struction, of a. new church, the body of
which was of stone, though the spire
was of wood. This was opened for
divine service in 1839, and continued in
use until its destruction by fire on
April 7th, 1849. Chief Justice William
H. Draper was the chair man of the
Building Committee, the builder be
ing J. Worthington. A sad accident oc
curred on October 31st, 1839, during the-
rebuilding William Butcher, one of the
workmen, fell from the steeple to the
roof of the building, he being killed

instantly. In its interior arrange
ments the church was much the same
as its predecessor. It i s greatly to be
regretted that many of the records of
St. James" church from 1834 or there
abouts, up to 1842, were, with other
papers of value, destroyed in the fires
of 1838 and 1849, rendering it impos
sible t give many details respecting
the third parish church of St. Jain.es,
and the first cathedral of the diocese of
Toronto.
In the chancel, which was square,
not semi-circular, were three windows
with circular heads. The centre one
of these contained coloured glass repre
senting Christ bearing a lamb, emble
matic of the parable of the Good Shep
herd. The western one was filled by
a representation of Moses standing be
fore the Burning Bush, the great
Israelite being attired in a robe of
vivid blue, and he was gazing intent
ly on the sight before him. Galleries
ran round the western, eastern and j
southern sides and end, in the latter ;
lieing placed the organ, around which j
the choir sat. A rail and curtain hid
the vocalists from the view of the i
congregation during the reading of the j
psalms, lessons, and during prayer
time. This latter was drawn aside
when the preacher ascended the pul
pit, and remained so during the ser- :
mon. The pulpit was a huge " three ;
decker," while immediately beneath it, j
on the western side of the aisle, was j
the pew of the Governor-General, and
in the eastern row of seats was the
pew reserved for the officers of the ,
garrison.
Fox many years previous to 1845 a I
iraw 6f Lombardy poplars stood along
King street, in front of the church j
edifice. Mr. George Duggan wa,s the
donor and planter of these, and as tbey j
flourished with a good, sturdy growth, :
he took gre^t interest in them, in 1845
it wa<3 decided by the vestry tha,t the. ;
poplars must go. The question aroused
a heated discussion, which was carried j
on verbally and through the columns ;
of the press. Mr. Duggan warmly re- |
sented the removal of the trees, and it j
was a t t thie risk of grievous bodily harm j
th %1 the churchwarden of the da.y, Mr. !
T. D. Harris, carried into effect thi3 re- |
[solution of the vestry. We subjoin a ;
letter published in the Patriot after the ;
decision to remove the trees wag arrived !
at:
"Audi alteram partem."
To the Editor of the Patriot :
Dear Sir, Your paper (along with
otiners) has Leen very severe in its
animadversions against the parties who
were instrumental in haying the poplar
trees in front of the cathedra,! cut down.
My object in troubling you is to show
th%t the churchwardens, to whom the
crime is generally attributed, are not to
blaime in (he transaction, and also that
the act itself was necessary and justifi
able-
In the first place the cutting down
was not merely a suggestion of the
Qa,thedrail officials. It was proposed at
a meeting of the vestry on Easter Mon
day, and carried without opposition ;
it is therefore unfair tha,t the onus
of the transactions of a body should
rest on individuals, whose office it
is merely to act according to the vote of
that body. In the next plaoe the poplar
iii a species of tree, or rather overgrown
weed, very dangerous in the vicinity of
any thoroughfare, from its unsound-
ness; and branches from he trees in
question were frequently falling to
the great risk of passers-by. Many
will recollect the narrtow escape the
family of a lady on Wellington street
had last winter from one of those trees,
which, though healthy in appearance,
broke near the root, and fell, striking
off the eavetrough in its progress.
Most providentially it did not fall di
rectly on the house, or there would
have been woeful cause to regret the
planting of so frail an ornament.
In conclusion, the poplar trees in
question, exclusive of their vermin-
harbouring propensities, and blight
ing injury done to the rising genera
tion of better shrubs, which they over
shadowed, were not at all in keeping
with the sacred edifice they stood be
fore. The Catholic faith should have
everything in connection with it seem
ly and in order. Oar pious forefathers
knew this, and therefore, planted their
churchyards with yews and oaks, em
blematic, as far as trees could go, of
that holy religion which the Almighty
will be with until the end of time.
Now the poplar has associations of a
far different nature. It was the French
tree of liberty, and a more appropriate
symbol of a democracy could not be
found. Oh ! rapid growth and as rapid
decay, externally flourishing but rot
ten at heart. Truly the sans culottes
evinced as much discrimination in the
selection of emblems as our neighbours
across the lake did in choosing their
eagle as a crest, a bird noted for its
rapacity and plundering instinct. Fin
ally, in the hope that the other papers
which have criticized "the barbarous
conduct of the wardens," may take the
trouble of inserting these few remarks,

date thus tells the story :
"About half-past one this morning

the main part of Nelson street on the
east, consuming Post s tavern, the

Patriot offica, and turning into King
street, to the east, where it burn, all
to Mr. Sproule s building, where it
stopped. The fire extended to the
all the back buildings and the office
of the Savings Bank. It then crossed
to the- west side of Nelson street, to
Rolf s tavern, destroying the whole
south of Duke street, consuming nearly
block, including the Mirror office, to
Mr. Nasmith s bakery. Proceeding
from Rolf s tavern, the flames laid hold
of the corner building, occupied by Mr.
O Donohue, which was speedily con
sumed, and then they ran along the
whole block to Mr. O Neill s, consuming
the valuable stores of Messrs. Hayes,
Harris, Cheney, O Neill and others.
About three o clock the spire of St.
James Cathedral took fire, and the
building was entirely destroyed. About
the same time the flames broke out
in the old City Hall, consuming the
greater part of the front buildings,
including Mr. McFarlane s small store.
The fire extended from the cathedral
across to the south side of King street,
where a fire lately occurred. The
shops of Mr. Rogers and others were
with difficulty saved. All that block,
extending to Mr. Walter McFarlane s
store, was in great danger ; some of
them had most of their goods removed,
and great injury to property was sus
tained. About five o clock the flames
were in a great measure subdued. The
exertions of the firemen were for a
long time, as usual, retarded by the
want of water. The soldiers of the
Rifle Brigade from the garrison were
extremely active, and deserve the high
est gratitude of the citizens. The loss
is estimated at 100,000, but this must
be within the mark. The insurance
offices are heavy sufferers."
The next week s paper gave the
losses and insurance as follows : Church
of England Cathedral insured for
8 000, cost of building from 11,000 to
13,000; O Neil Brothers, building in
sured for 1,500, stock 4,900; Camp
bell & Hunter, saddlers, goods re
moved, no insurance ; T. D. Harris,
hardware, total loss, the building be
lieved to have been fire-proof, insur
ance on building 1,500, ditto on stock
7,000; Cheney & Co., hardware, insur
ance 2,150. stock and valuable furni
ture entirely destroyed ; Thomas Hayes,
hardware, stock mostly destroyed, in
surance 8 JO ; M. P. Hayes, groceries,
goods mostly destroyed, insurance
1,8.30; Thomas Thompson, Mammoth
House, large stock of dry goods de
stroyed, insurance on building 1,000,
on stock 1,000, heavy loss ; Walker
& Hutchinson, goods saved; T.
Glasco, insured 450 ; loss cov

sured 150, will cover loss; M. O Dono
hue, insured 1,700; Patriot office,
Messrs. Rowsel l and Thompson, insur

burnt out a few months ago, insured
750; stock partly saved; Foy & Aus

Brown, insured 650; will cover loss;
Mead & Co., insured, 900; R. C. Gvvat-

and papers saved, 1,500; insured on
the house belonging to Mr. Brookes,

Bank, books and papers saved. On the
north-west side of Nelson street, Chas.
Robertson, insurance, 525; loss be

but tools; building insured for 400;
H. Macniven, dry goods; stock insured
for 100; furniture and stock entirely
consumed; William Henderson, dwell
ing house; insurance 100; John Na-
smith, baker, furniture saved; insur
ance, 400. The external effect of the
building when comtpleted by raising
the walls a few feet would be very
greatly imp-roved. It seems that an
insurance to the amount of 5,000 had
been effected in England upon the
church.
Francis street, east side, containing
several offices, shops and small houses,
including Messrs. McLean & Jones
chambers; R. Northcote s shop, Swain
& Co. s medicine shop, and Platt s
stables. On the north side were Mr.
Northcote s dwelling house, Bell &
Lemon s tavetrn, and several empty
houses. The toss on the City Hall ia
estimated at 3,000; insurance on Wal
ter McFarlane s stock in the City Hall,
1,000; building and stock seriously
injured, but the 1,750 of insurance
will more than cover the loss. Among
other objects which fell a prey to the
flames in this conflagration was the
clock in the belfry of St. James , placed
there by the Hon. William Henry Dra
per, on his retirement from public life
several years before.
During the fire Richard Watson, late
publisher of the Canadian, and of the
IPpper Canada Gazette, lost his life
in the performance of a friendly act
to the proprietors or the Patriot office.

can properly handle, he rushed up
stairs to the highest storey of
the office, and, remaining too
l;ong, the floor gava way with
him. One young man, who was
actively engaged in the same occupa
tion, called to Mr. Watson that it was
time to go, but he replied that it was
time enough yet. This is the last which
was heard of him in life. Engines were
played on the burning ruins of the
Patriot office, and a,t length, in the
afternoon, were found the remains of
this unfortunate gentleman, but so
mutilated as not to be recognized. The
dea,th of Mr. Woifcon is a subject of
universal regret, and it has this dis
tressing bjggrayation that it leaves a
widow and family entirely unprovided
for. The journal with which he wais con
nected was not a, prosperous one, and
the Upper Canada. Gazette was about
to be abolished when Mr. Watson was
appointed printer of the Gazette ; at
i h, Teeniest of Mr. Stan ton, in the year
1844, it was expressly stipulated tha,t
no compensation siould be given him,
if the government found it necessary
to discontinue the Gazette or withdraw
the emoluments. For twenty years Mr.
Watson had the management, as prin
cipal and confidential foreman in tha
government office of th.3 Gazette, and
for five years on his own account.
(The Vestry meeting of April 9th,
1849, owing to the church having been
destroyed by fire on April 7th previ
ously, was held in the Central District
school house.
At this meeting the following mem
bers of the congregation were appoint
ed a committee for re-building the
church : The wardens, Chief Justices
J. B. Robinson and W. Draper, Freder
ick Widder, Peter Paterson, J. G. Hag-
arty, J, G. Howard, G. Percival Ridout,
William, Wakefield, Charles Berczy,
"William Proudfoot, J. E. Small, W. At
kinson, James Blown, Philip M. Van-
koughnet, Henry Sherwood, Alexander
Dixon, Thomas Helliwell, John Dug-
gan, Sheriff Jarvis, and the Mayor of
Toronto. On December 31st, 1897, the
only survivor of these gentlemen was
Sir. J. G. Hagarty.
After the great fire of 1849 the work
of building was again commenced, and
tha result of it is the St. James cathe-
drLil of tc-day. The edifice was com
pleted for worship in 1853, from the
designs of Mr. F. W. Cumberland, a
leading Toronto architect, but many
details in Mr. Cumberland s plan re
mained unrealized for a long time. The
tower and spire were absent, as also
the fine porches on the east, west and
south sides, the turrets at the an
gles, and the pinnacles and filials or
tha buttresses.
The corner stone of the present build
ing was laid November 20th, 1850, and
the church occupied three years later.
The transepts, spires, pinnacles and
porches were not finished, however,
until 1874. The tower was also built in
this progressive style, additions being
made until it attained, with the spire,
j to the top of the vane a height of 310
i feet. It is not the highest spire on this
! continent, as is generally believed, be
cause the spire of the Fifth Avenue
Roman Catholic Cathedral of New
York city measures 325 feet to the top
of the cross; Trinity Church, of that
, city, runs up 2?o feett. The chimes of
1 eight bells cost $12,000, and their
| sweet music rings out the hours that
i tell of days rapidly passing by and
< doubtless carries the thoughts of
many a man bacfc to the old Englia(h
home and its fond memories and ten
der attachments.
The total length of the building is
198 feet, and its extreme width 108
feet. It cost about $223,000. Of this
amount $75,000 remains unpaid. It is
built of white brick, with stone mould
ings and facings, and combines a mod
ern spirit of adornment with the se
vere simplicity of the eaxly English
gothic in such sympiestry and harmony
as to make iti not only a massive, but
a graceful and beautiful structure, and
one which is very properly a matter
of pride not only to the immediate
parishioners, but to the city at large,
and it is always visited by those who
come to see the special features of
this thriving city.
In the churchyard, north-west of the
church, is the school-house, where the
Anglican Synod holds its sessions. This
building, with its furniture, is worth
$15,500. A rectory, on Adelaide street,
was valued in 1885 at $8,700, and there
are valuable park lots connected with
the establishment. The assets con
nected with St. James cemetery are
valued at $40,337.27. The total value
of all the buildings* and land is about
$250,000.
The congregation s clergy comtprise
the rector, curate and cemetery chap
lain. There are fifteen organizations
| to carry on the work of the church,
j which are thoroughly organized and
! faithfully engaged. One by one the
j links that bind St. James to the as-
I sociations of the past are broken by
. death, and the buli of the present con-
gregation (1897) have little in com-

noon with the early worshippers in the
historic building.
The following account of the ser
vices in St. James in 1885 is taken
from a newspaper sketch of the church
and congregation published in that
year. It will be read with interest
not only by old, but by present wor
shippers. The old galleries were then
in the church, and the surpliced choir
had not been introduced.
"The rector of the parfsh, Canon Du-
moulin, conducted tlile service as far as
the end of the lessons, and from that
point, Mr. Hobson, tfae> curate, officia
ted. The service was read witih dignity,
and this propriety befitting a service
that is so r ieih and expressive in itself.
Familiarity with it oin account ot its
constant reipetitiotn engenders a mon
otonous style of reading that sometimes
overlooks the emphasis necessary to de
velop its beauty, and thus deprives it of
tShat interest m It om this part of the
hearer which is essential to its practi
cal benefit. The last sentence of the
Lord s Pnayeir is not used in this ser
vice, for the reason tlhat it is not a
part of the prayer as Jesus first ut
tered it. After a preliminary service
ot three-quarters of an. hour, Rev. P.
H. DuMbulin ascended tihfe pulpit, to
the right of the chancel, and delivered
a sermon of 25 minutes length. He is
a ^ gentleman a little past middle life,
with stately bearing, a fine presence
and an exceedingly rich voice, and in
his earlier life undoubtedly possessed
the possibilities of oratory. While his
sermon on this occasion was not dis
tinguished by any great originality of
thought yet it was couched in well-
chosein language and brought within
the easy comprehension of the 450
listeners. His style of delivery becomes
more natural as he loses thought of
the surroundings and it is attended
with considerable animation and some
expressive gesticulation; but the mono
tone predominates and has a tendency
to produce a soothing effect upon the
hearer. And this, with the distress-
inigly uncomfortable heat in the build-
rng, or, act least, in the gallery, in
duced a popular condition of somnol
ency. Many were seen asleep and
others resorted to all those little
tricks which are used to convey the
impression of wakefulness while the
pnima facie evidence convicts them of
tihe contrary condition.
The following excerpts from the ser
mon may be somewhat interesting ;
"Let us search and try our ways amd
turn again to tlxe Lord." This was Mr.
Dumoulin s text and from it he deduct
ed, in pfaflrn, practical, earnest style,
I the necessity of the Christian s selr-
i examination.
"There are seasons profitable for
spiritual examination. While this is not
a ca st iron rule or applicable to every-
I one, yet the public seasons of Lent and
Advent are always good.
"Try your condition by your domin-
j ant passion. Are you still its obedient
amd most miserable slave? Is it as
powerful now as when you began your
Christiana, ways? These are questions
of w M h every Christian can take stock
beftxre has God to-night.
"Try yourselves by tihe matter of
service. There are 15 organizations for
work in this church; To. which do you
work ? If you walk about tihe streets
and lanes of tlhis cathedral church and
never put forth a finger to help and
lift up from sin and degradation and
make the poor your brothers amd sis
ters, you haven t heard the voice of
Jesus Cihrist, and your life is not one
of service and devotion to your Master.
If you can t do anything give somie-
thiing.
"If your spirituaf supply is not kept
up your spirit will become ba/nkrupt
and danger will come.
"There is so much more of con
science than consistency in us that we
: pass sentence and inflict just punish-
: ment on ourselves.
The object of self-examination is not
! to dishearten us, but to turn us again
to God."
" Some of the pews in the church,
i which has a seating capacity of about
2,000, are owned as freehold property;
! others are rented, and those seats in
: the central aisle and chancel are free
at all times to anybody; in this re
spect St. James follows an ancient
English parish custom. Any stranger
i has the privilege of taking a seat in
the chance L, the very best location in
the building . It is a rule to make
j all the pews free at the evening ser-
i vice; hence the regular worshippers
rather give place for "outsiders, " and
the evening congregations are largely
| composed of other Church! of England
| people and strangers. The congrega
tion last Sunday evening was very
largely of this character; rich people,
so far as dress goes, and people in very
moderate circumstances, were there; a
i great many _ young men were present,
and seemed interested in the ritual; a
few came in half an hour late, and a

down the nave, and even through the
musical portion of the service. The
singers numbered 25, and were led by
a choirmaster buried behind the clock
and vigorously beating time with the
only part of him) visible, viz.. a kid-
.glovel tond waving above his head.
But it was a* reverent congregation;
save the usual choir inspection of the
people below d/uring prayer there was
universal decorum and attention; and
as the clear, melodious tones of the
reader called forth the people s re
sponse, and echo of the united Amen"
of choir and peopie rose to the vaulted
roof and seemed to linger about its
graceful curves and lines, a restful
and elevated influence uplifted the
spirit into a purer atmosphere."
" No criticism of the organist could
be made except that of the most fa
vourable kind. Be played with pre
cision and taste and with excellent ar
rangement of stops. The music during
the offertory was fine, but the post-
lude was especially brilliant."
"Correctly speaking, St. James is not
a cathedral, because it has neither the
officiating ministers nor thei ritualism
which properly entitles a church to
this name. As the principal and the
oldest Anglican church in the city, and
as an architectural copy, on a limit
ed scale, of the Salisbury and Lincoln
cathedrals of England, it has been given
the title. Its historic associations are
far-reaching and valuable; its relation
to some of the leading citizens of To
ronto in the times gone by, and the
general style of the building itself,
about which are clustered so many
memories, invest it with that spirit of
reverence we always feel when we
stand in th presence of any object
that links the throbbing life of the
present to the pulseless life of the
past."
"This feeling is aroused in the visitor
who stands at the entrance of the
nave and looks up to the arches 70 feet
above his head; a glance along the nave
for 112 feet brings the eye to the chan
cel to tha arched dome, richly carved
stalls and altars, and its three illum-
inated and beautifully decorated stain
ed glass windows. The nave is 44 feet
wide, and the body of tha church 75
feet; the chancel, the desks and the
choir furniture are finished, in oak and
the other woodwork of the building is
pine and grained oak, which gives the
church a rather sombre appearance
and that yet seems to fall in with the
massive sta-teliness that is so im
pressive. The style of architecture is
early English gothic with additions
that materially depart from the sim
plicity of that ancient style, and yet
these departures are so harmonized
with the pure gothic that a beautiful
effect is produced, and the beholder is
not startled by the innovations. The
I most noticeable contrast is afforded by
the magnificent chancel windows,
which seem out of place when compared
with the severe and simple architec
tural character of the building.
" The graveyard is long since disused,
yet in many parts may be. seen slabs
of stone and marble, covering bodies
long since buried, and when excava
tions were made for the foundations
of the present building, a great quan
tity of bones was turned up. Very
many bodies, however, have been re
moved to St. James cemetery, and no
burials are now made in the yard, al
though it is the privilege of a dean
to secure sepulture under the church
itself. The first dean of this church,
Henry James _Grasett, who was con
nected with it as curate and rector
46 years, and who was a man of sin
gularly gentle, scholarly and reverent
character, lies buried beneath the
communion table in the chancel. The
1 central memorial window was erected
| as a tribute to him, and testifies the
1 affection and esteem in which he was
| held. A marble bust of him is placed
| above the dean s stall, while the north-
west memorial window is commemora-
! tive of his wife, Sarah Martha, who
i died in March, 1886.
"Above the bishop s throne is a bust
I of white marble with a slab of dark
i sloae below bearing an inscription in
gilded letters which reads :
"Near this ppot rest the mortal re-
; mains of John Strachan, first Bishop
j of Toronto, who departed this life No
vember the 1st, 1867, in the 90th year
j OL his age and the 29th of his episco
pate."
"The north-east window is a memorial
] to Canon Edmiond Baldwin, who died
May 31, 1870; there is abso a marblje
tablet erected to his memory under the
east gallery. A number of memorial
tablets are inserted in the walls un
der the gallery, among them one to
Chief Justice Wm. Henry Draper and
one to Sir Henry Parker, fifth baronet
of Hatburn, Warwickshire. A beauti
ful inlaid brass tablet near the west
door keeps in grateful remembrance the
name of Lieut. Wm. Chas. Fitch, killed
in action at Batoche, N.W.T., May 121
1885. It was put there by his brother
officers of the Royal Grenadiers. Near
it is another bearing .the name of Col.
George T. Denison. Another brass tab
let is especially remarkable because the
man who engraved it has given hfes

names of the dead heroes it is designed
to honour; still another speaks of Cap
tain J. H. Gamble, a young soldier who
fell in her Majesty s service in Afghan-
"Standing in this massive church with
the immensity of it all about him, with
the "dim religious light" falling upon
the life-like marble and. suggesting the
repose of tbe sleepers beneath his feet
it seems to the visitor as if there were
a very close relation between the liv
ing and the dead.
"Yes, it is appropriate," said an old
lady of St. James church, "and it La
pleasant to feel that those who have
gone are so near to us."
"In 1872 a fund for the completion
of the edifice, in accor dance with Mr.
Cumberland s plans, was initiated, and
in 1873 the building was brought to
its present state of perfection. In
1866 the sum of $14,945 was expended
in the purchase of a peal of bells and
a clock and for their reception in the
tower. In 1870, to do honour to the
memory of the then recently deceased
iBishop Strachan the chancel was
beautified at a cost of 7,500, by sur
rounding the spacious apse with an ar
cade of finely-carved oak, adding seats
for the canons, a deaconal stall, a
bishop s throne, a pulpit and desk, all
in the same style and material, elabo
rately carved with a life-like bust in
white marble of the departed prelate,
by Eraser, of Montreal, in a niche con
structed for its reception in the west
ern wall of the chancel. Besides
Bishop Strachan are also entomibed in
the chancel Dean EP. J. Grasett and
his wife. St. Jami&s church is of white
brick with stone mouldings and fac
ings. The architecture is early Eng
lish, niodified. The body of the church
consists of a nave with low transepts,
and, until recently, galleries. The
aisles are lighted by triplet windows,
and the chancel does not face the east,
but turns to the north, the least
ecclesiastical of all points of the com
pass as it was in mediaeval times re
puted to be the residence of Satan him
self. The chancel is apsidal, adorned
without by heavy buttresses. Between
these are windows with elaborate tra
cery. The central window has a triple
light, and is of rich and luxuriant de
sign. The floral opem work roof is an
exaggeration of the simlple style of
first pointed Gothic. The King street
entrance has a profusion; of ornamen
tation. The body of the church con
tains one thousand two hundred and
twenty sittings, and there were five
hundred additional sittings in the gal
leries before they were removed dur
ing the past year. The spire of St.
James is a credit to the city, and
it is no less pleasing to English church
men to think that from the rude build
ing of 1803 has risen the lovely church
of 1889."

Since the foregoing sketch appeared
the galleries in St. James have been
taken down and some few alterations
effected on the floor of the church also.
The choir now occupy the chancel, aa
do the organ and the organist. The
following additional notes may be
added respecting the history of St.
James . Rev. Henry James Grasett
presided at the Easter meeting of 1847
for the first time as rector, in succes
sion to the Right Rev. John Strachan,
D.D., which office he filled for nearly
forty years.
On April 24th, 1848, a new font was
given to the church, the old one, which
had been presented to the congrega
tion by the R&v. W. M. Shaw, M. A.,
having been sent to Cobourg.
April 9th, 1858, was the date of the
Easter Vestry meeting in that year,
when a special vote of thanks was
passed to J. Tarratt, Esq., of Down-
ton Castle, Shropshire, England, for
the gift of a stained gloss cleristory
window. On May 9th, 1859, a similar
vote was passed to Rev. H. J. Grasett,
Thomas Gibbs Ridout, Lewis Moffatt.
Thomas Dennie Harris, George Taylor
Denison and Frederic William Cum
berland.
At the Vestry held on April 18th.
1864, a cordial and unanimous vote of
thanks was passed to Thomas Dennie
Harris for his services as church-ward
en for twenty-five years. Mr. Harris
retired from office that year.
At the Easter vestry meeting, taking
place on April 17, 1876, it was reported
that the Vienna prize clock, purchased
by the committee of citizens of To
ronto of all denominations, had been
placed in the tower of the church, the
vestry duly recorded that they looked
apon this act as "a pleasant, practical
exhibition of generous Christian liber
ality on the part of members of other
religious bodies in the city, and could
not but be hailed by the congregation
of St. James as a delightful recog 1 -
nition of the very agreeable relations
which have so long existed between
that congregation and the other re
ligious bodies in Toronto."
When the Easter vestry took place
in 1882 a vote of condolence on t^ie
death of the Very Rev. Dean Grasett

was passed by the assembled parish
ioners, and ordered to be transmitted
by the vestry clerk to the family of
the late Dean.
In 1888 it was decided by the con
gregation of St. James that the whole
of the. galleries on the eastern and
western sides of the building should
be removed, and the nave and aisles re
seated. This was done, and the organ
placed in the chancel of the church.
A surpliced choir was introduced, which
took its place in the chancel instead
of in the southern gallery, as had
hitherto been the custom.
In 1895 covered additions and alter
ations were mp.de in the adjacent school
house, and the rectory was rented to
the Children s Aid Society, after hav
ing been used as the rectory for more
than half a century.
It is somewhat remarkable that, al
though St. James has a history of
very nearly a century, it has in that
time had only five rectors, w r ho were :
Rev. George O Kill Stuart, J 8 0-1811.
Venerable Archdeacon John Strachan,
1811-1839. Consecrated Bishop 1839.
Rector 1839-1846.

1847; Rev. Edmond Baldwin, 1850-1876;
Rev. H. J. Boddy, 1858-1863; Rev. H.
H. Waters, 1873; Rev. E. Greene, 1876-

Rev. Dyson Hague, 1884; Rev. W. Hob-
son, Rev. J. H. Winterbourne, 1892-
1893; Rev. A. H. Manning, 1893; Rev.
C. J. Boulden, 1893-1896; Rev. J. C.
Mockridge. There were some few others
who only remained for a brief period.
The churchwardens of St. James
since 1807 have been these: 1807-08,
D Arcy Boulton and William Allan;
1808-09, Thomas Ridout and William
Allan; 1809-10, Samuel Jarvis a*d Wil
liam Allan; 1810-11, D. Cameron and

Howland; 1890-92., H. J. Grasett and O.
A. Howland; 1892-98, H. J. Grasett and
R. N. Goooh.
Up to the date of the incorporation
of the city the wardens of St. James
were ex-officio on the governing body
of the then town of York.
The Rev. Philip DuMoulin was ap
pointed to the see of Niagara as its
Bishop in the spring oi 1896, and was
consecrated in the Church of St. James,
where for nearly fourteen years he had
been rector, on June 22nd, 1896. The
consecrating prelate was the Arch
bishop of Ontario, Dr. Lewis, assisted
by the Bishops of Huron, Algoma and
Ottawa. The sermon was preached by
the Very Rev. Dean CarmichaeL, of
Montreal. The scene in St. James was
a most impressive one. There were
about a hundred clergymen present,
and representative Laymen from
every part of the province. The con
gregation was an enormous one, great
numbers being unable to obtain ad
mission.
Canon DuMoulin s successor at St.
James was the Right Rev. E. Sulli
van, Bishop of Aligomja, who resigned
his episcopal charge to assume the
rectory of St. James . He preached
his first sermon as rector on October
4th, 1896.
The Rev. C. J. Boulden resigned the
curacy of St. James on August 31st,
1896, going to Berthier, Quebec, as head
master of St. Alban s school. He was
succeeded by Rev. E. C. Wallace, for
merly a C. M. S. missionary in the
Klondike, and with Mr. Wallace came
the Rev. Richard Ashcroft.
Among those who in former and
later years have done much in connec
tion with the musical services of St.
James must be mentioned Mrs. Gilki-
son, who was organist in the latter
" forties " and earlier " fifties." Mr.
John Carter, also organist for a very
great number of years. Dr. J. Stocks-
Hammond, who was a most accom
plished musician, as well as a careful
and conscientious choir leader. He
only lived about twelve months after
accepting the post, dying in June, If
He was succeeded by Dr. Albert Ham,
of Dublin University, who at the time
of his appointment to St. James was
organist of the parish church, Taun-
ton, Somersetshire, England. Mr. E.

W. Schuch was also a prominent fig

and leader. Under Mr. Schuch s care
the choir attained a great degree of
proficiency.
Yet a; few more words may be
sod describing tlhe grave yard
surrounding tfie church known
iuince 1839 more familiarly as the Cathe
dral. Shortly after the first church
was comme need it was decided tihat the
grouaid immedialely surrounding t hie
l-uilding should be set apart as a
graveyard and for that purpose was it
used for about 33 years. Wh>n St.

the west side of thie church a little to
the south of the vestry. It is in mem- ,
ory ot Isaac Newton S-mh and his wife, j
who daed in 1832 and 1834 respectively. ]
The inscription which is extremely
laudatory (is entirely in Latin with a
quotation rn lireek) and is as plainly
to be read as when first en
graved more than sixty years
ago. Mr. Such was a gentleman
am Englishman, resident in Toronto
froai the latter "twenties until his
death, who constituted himself a kind
o - "censor nxx urn" to the community.
He was especially severe on tlhe mode
o: teai.th.iiag introduced at Upper Can
ada College (founded in 1829) at the in-
stain e oi the Principal, the Rev. J. Har
ris, D.D. By his criticisms he brought
d^wn upon himself the wrath of the
Rev. Charles Mathews, one of the classi
cal masters at the college. The con
troversy was short-lived, while Mr.
Su?h s proposals, which were only in
.advance of the time, have long since
.been adopted. One of them was the
very sensible one, that th>e Eton Latin
Grammar, with English notes, should
be substituted for the grammar with
notes wholly in Latin- It was opposed,
though why it is now impossible to
asjertaiin. Perhaps, for the credit of
the intelligence 6t" our predecessors, it
is as well the "reasons 1 are not known.
There axe no oTtuer stoiaes close to
tine church on the western side, aaid
but oae in tihe north-western corner,
cin whi^h the inscription can be read.
It is Tin memory of John Polly, who
was tihe father of a well-kniowm dry-
goods salesman., in business oa King
street forty-five years ago.
On the eastern side oi the church
yard, close underneath the wall to
wards the northern transept, is the
stone marking the grave of Frederick
Halkett, lieutanant and captain Cold-
stream Guards, who died at the age
of z 8, on October 25, 1840.
Captain Halkett was A. D. C. to Sir
George Arthur, the Lieutenant-Gover-
nor, and hie military secretary. He
died in Toronto after a very brief ill
ness.
Close to Captain Halkett s grave is
that of Simon E. Waibburn, who died
on September 29, 1837, aged 44 years.
His residence was on tha north-west
corner of Duke and George streets. He
was a prominent lawyer in the town
of York from 1820 until the time of his
death. Two broken stones adjacent, to
the last named mark the last resting
r; laces of "Margaret, the wife of
John Hart," died February 2nd, 1837,
tged 2V, and John Homer Winn, late of
London, Eng. This last named stone
is undated, though it is probably about
1835. Mr. Winn s daughters were well
known school teachers in Toronto 60
years ago. One of them still survives
and one was ths wife of Robert Brit-
ton Denison. She died many years
ago, leaving severs.1 children.
Another interesting tablet is that

dell It was erected by the Law So
ciety of Upper Canada,, to whom Mr.
Cawdell was secretary and librarian for
several years prior to his death, which
took place August 13, 1842.
Yet more memories are stirred by
another stone womewhat to the south
east of the Cathedral, the inscription
on which is fast becoming obliterated.
It is to the memory of Harriet Throck-
morton, wife of Dr. Alexander Burn-
side, a well-known medical practitioner,
who resided on Yonge street, on its
west side, north of Richmond, for many
years. It is not possible now to make
the date of her death out accurately,
but it appears to be 1839 At Dr. Burn-

side s death, In 1855, a certain public
institution in the city was very great
ly bemefitted by the provisions of his
will. It does not seem too much to
suggest that this institution, which has
& friend of the doctor s or, at any ra1\>,
one who knew him well at its head,
should put this stone in repair and have
the inscription re-cut. The cost would
be very trifling.
There are three stones close to the
northern end of St. James which re
call the earlier history of the province.
These are to the memory of John Mon-
ro, who died May 27, ISSCf, aged 42 ;
Mtrs. Mary Magill, who died October
llth, 1822, aged 55 yearsi, and Char
lotte Fothergill, who died November
3rd, 1822, aged 32 years. The first
named of these, John Monro, was a
Scotchman by birth, and his place of
business was on the south side of King
street east, not far from Frederick
street. He was a brother of the well-
known George Monro. Mrs. Magill
was the .widow of Captain Magill, of
the Canadian Fencibles. This gentle
man must rot, be confounded with Cap
tain John McGill, of the Queen s Rang
ers, who lived where now stands the
Metropolitan church. Mrs. Fothergill
was the wife of Charles Fothergill, the
Queen s Printer, and publisher of the
Toronto Almanac and Royal Calendar.
He also issued a pnper known as the
Palladium. His o r ficas were on York
street. He resided in the eastern por
tion of the city, at no great distance
from where Trinitv church now stands.
He flourished in Toronto from a little
after 1 the close of the war of 1812 until
about 1844.
In the north-eastern corner of the
church-yard is a stone, to the memory
of Mary, the wife of Michael lOating,
who died on November 24th, 1832, aged
84. This stone is in an excellent state
o? preservation, and the inscription is
almost a clear as when it was fi r st
cut sixty-five years since. Mrs. Keat
ing was the proprietor of the British
Coffee-house on Front street, a well-
known refreshment house in York
seventy yea rs s i nee .
Near by Mrs. Keaitins s grave is thit
of Lorinna,, wife of Stephen Secord, who
kept the George and Dragon Inn on
the eaist side of Church street, near
King street. She died, aged 34, on De
cember 2nd, 1834. Stephen Secord was
a brotjuer-in-law of the famous Laura
Secord, whose name is indissolubly con
nected with, the history of the wa,r of
1812, by her famous journey to apprise
FitzGibbon of his danger at Beaver
Bam.
Thie stone which marks the grave of
William Jackes, who died, aged 71, on
August 29th, 1840, is still fairly wall
pjrciserved. Mr, Japkes wajs one of the
pioneers of York ai century since, and
ma,ny of the family still reside in the
city or its neighbourhood.
In the north-eastern portion ol the
gra,veya,rd are stones marking the
graves of Emily, tie wife of Dr. Min-
ga,y, died December 17th., 1834, aged 41 ;
Phoebe, who was Thomas Dandy s wife,
and who died in 1839, aged 36, and also
thi%t of Mary, the wife of James Jame
son, who died April 9th, 1837, a the
early a ( ge of 26 years. Several children
born to Mr. and Mrs. Jameson are in
terred in the same place. A plain stone
in the same locality records tha;i. then 1
lies Da.niel Ardagh, died January 31st,
aged 60. Dr. Ming/iy was probably at
tached to the g-nrrison and only a
transient resident. No mention of him
is to be found in any directories or
alma,na,as of th period. James Jamesr>:t
was a well known boot and shoe dealer,
whose residence and place of business
wa,s on the south side of King streec
east, a.lmost apposite to St. Jam-as
nhurch Kent hern door, but a, little to
the east.
The 13th Regiment of Infantry were
evidently quartered in York in 1841,
for there is a stone in the extreme
north-east corner to the memory of
Mary Cragg, who was wife to the Ser
geant Master Tailor of that corps. She,
at the age of 40, died on October 4th,
18 il. Very close to Mrs. Cragg s last
resting place is that of Mary Sayre,
wife of Mr. Clarke Gamble, who died
August 23, 1837, aged 21 years 5
months and 13 days. Mrs. Gamble ha
been a Miss Boulton. Mr. Gamble, hale
and hearty, despite his beirig almost a
nonogcnarian, is still amongst us.
A little to the south of the last-named
grave is a slab covering a vault,
u herein is interred Charlotte, the wife
of tha Hon. John Henry Dunn, and four
of her children. Tae inscription sim
ply states that the bodies were de
posited there in 18~0. No specific dates
are given, but it is well known that
Mrs. Dunn died in the year named.
Near the Dunn vault is the grave
cf David Stegman, who died in 1834,
at the age of 35 years. Tae last named
was a son of David Stegman, who had
his place of business on the north side
of King street, two or three doors to
the east of New street (Jarvis street).
David Stegman, the older, was a very
prominent man in York in its early

days, and was one of the magistrates
for the Home District.
Another notable grave was that of
Stephen Jarvis, who was born in 17-56,
and died in 1840, being one of the very
last survivors of the U, E. Loyalists.
Mr. Jarvis joined the Queen s Rangers
under Colonel Simcoe, in 1774, as an
ensign, and served all through the
Revolutionary war. On peace being
concluded, he came to Canada, and sub
sequently settled in York. He was for
many years Gentleman Usher of the
Black Rod in the Legislative Council,
and subsequently Registrar of the
County of York. His residence was in
Rosedale, in the old homestead. He was
father of the late sheriff, William
Boisford Jarvis. His wife, who pre
deceased her husband by twenty years,
is buried in the same grave.
Very near the grave just referred
to, is Emily Sarah, the wife of Dr.
Widmer. born 1780, died August 31st,
1833. Dr. Widmer at the time of his
wife s death, resided on King street,
and was in partnership with Dr. Diehl,
but he subsequently removed to a
large house on Front street east, now
No. 222, which is still standing, but
in a most dilapidated condition. Dr.
Widmer himself died in 1855, and is
interred in St. James cemetery.
There are two stones near here (with
all but illegible inscriptions) to the
memory of younger members of the
Radenhurst family, and one to John
Kidd, who died in 1841, aged 42.
Mr. Kidd was the Governor of To
ronto jail. One of his daughters, mar
ried to a prominent citizen and city
official, now resides in Toronto (1897).
Another stone close to those last
named marks the grave of a man as
notable in his time as was Stephen
Jarvis, already referred to. It is that
of Thomas Ridout. The following is
the inscription it bears:
" Sacred to the memory of the Hon-
ourabje Thomas Ridout, of Sherbourne,
Dorsetshire, England, late Surveyor-
General of this Province, and member
of his Majesty s Legislative Council,
who departed this life on the 8th Feb
ruary, 1829, in the 75th year of his
age."
Mr. Ridout s descendants to the fifth
generation now reside in Toronto and
in many different parts of the Do
minion. Though it is sixty-eight years
since he died, there are still living in
Toronto two or three people who can
remember him. Next to Mr. Ridout s
grave is that of his son John, whose
death occurred on July 12th, 1817, when
he was but 18 years of age. His life,
though short, had been eventful, for
he had been a midshipman in the
Provincial Navy during the war of
1812, and had distinguished himself in
action.
. He fell in a duel, fought in a field
on the west side of Yonge street, near
where Elmsley Villa subsequently
stood. This was almost the last duel
foulght in Canada,
Near by the grave of Mr. Thomas
Ridout is the slab covering the grave
of William Butcher, formerly of Wai-
pole, Norfolk, England, who was killed
on October 21st, 1839, while engaged
in erecting the steeple of the church
(St. James), which was destroyed by
fire ten years later. Batcher, who was
27 years of age, fell from the spire to
the roof of the church, a distance of
70 feet, and was taken up dead.
Next to this grave is that ot Jane,
the wife of John Jefferson, who died
aged 39, May 29th, 1837. Mr. Jeffer
son was a private citizen, and a mem
ber of St. James congregation.
With only a few trifling exceptions,
this concludes the story of the stones
and their inscriptions in St. James
churchyard. It is to be lamented that
the records of where many of the
pioneers of the city were buried in
the first twenty years of its existence
appear to have been utterly lost. As
regards scores of the old-time worthies,
"no man knows their sepulchre," not
even their direct descendants, while
the graves of some who did noble ser
vice for their king and country are
not marked by even the slightest me
morial. Sic transit gloria mundi.

Ecclesiastical records to many peo
ple present a most fascinating study,
as they generally throw a some
what different light on historical in
cidents than that in which these are
often pourtrayed by secular historians.
Records of births and baptisms, of mar
riages and of deaths to be found in all
church archives, though in the great
majority of cases bare statements of
fact, are interesting to read, as they
carry the readers back, in imagination,
at least, to the times when their an
cestors were in the flesh, busy as them
selves in the pleasures and responsi
bilities of life.
Our Ontarian ecclesiastical records are
none of them of much greater antiqufty
than a century ! in Kingston they date
from 1786 ; in Niagara from about the
same date, and in Toronto, formerly
York, from 1807. The following records
of baptisms, as they are entered in the
vestry books of St. James church, To
ronto, will recall to the memory of
376
many, people who once played .a pro
minent part in the affairs of the pro
vince:

liam, son of Lewis and Margaret Bright,

and Sar-a-h Myers and Michael Dovle, bv
me, George O Kill Stuart.
The officiating clergyman in this
case was the rector of St. James , the
Venerable Archdeacon Stuart, after
wards, in 1811, removed to Kingston,
Lewis Bright, named here, was for
many years principal messenger in the
Provincial House of Assembly. The boy
William was in after life a prominent

Two well-known families are here re
ferred to, the Herons and the Carfraes.
Hugh Carfrae had formerly served in
the Queen s Rangers, under General
Simcoe, and the Heron family were
among our earliest settlers. Both the
Carfraes and the Herons have, in 1897,

Why the archdeacon should go out of

surgeon in the Glengarry Light In-

I corps in 1817 entered into business and
I became editor and publisher of the

i when he became principal teller in the
Rank of Upper Canada. During the
rebellion of 1837 his house at Yorkville
was burned by the insurgents, to whom
he had made himself obnoxious. BRs

Gamble and a sister to Jane Gamble,
also to Mrs. Allan, referred to in this

Yet other most interesting records
connected with. St. James are those
contained in the Marriage registers,
which extend from 1800 to 1896, both
years inclusive. In these registers are
many thousand entries, and in the
earlier ones more especially are found
the names of those who helped to build
up Canada West and make our city
what it is to-day.
In many cases the entries are signed
in the original by one or other of the
contracting parties, sometimes by both,
with a mark. In every such case the
mark has been omitted, but that is
the only deviation which has been
made from the original. The first en
try is in 1800, and is as follows :

Nearly all the marriage registers of
St. James , from 1824 to 1831, were de
stroyed in the fire which occurred in
the year 1839. Only some half dozen
remain, and their preservation is owing
to the fact that they were entered
separately on loose sheets of paper and
were folded between the leaves of books
which were preserved.
The first of these entries does not
occur till 1828, and reads thus:
